Hi all,

I'm trying to layout a grid of data using a specific layout that our designing team has produced -- IF it's possible, that is :)

The layout need to look similar to the following:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAIN NEWS dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LATEST dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
NEWS ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
            ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECENT dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
NEWS ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
            ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
            ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
            ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ARCHIVE dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
            ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
            ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
            ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
            ------------------------------------------------------------
            dd/mm/yyyy abcabcabc [button][button][Radio selection]
        ....
        .... etc ....
        ....
------------------------------------------------------------------------


Hopefully the intend is pretty clear... that the first group contains 1 item (that's the main news item), the next group contains 3 items (latest news) the next contains 6 items (recent news) and then the remainder are shown under "archived" -- we can have the number of items in each group being hard-coded, that's OK, but they don't all have the same number of items :(

I had thought that using a list view with groups may be a solution, but from what I've read up on them, you can't specify a different number of items for each group?

Any advice on layout options would be much appreciated....

Thanks,
Bron
