The previous builds of the hTooltip ActiveX DLL may cause some problems with launching your apps if the Data Execution Prevention (DEP) system is turned on; especially this is true after you install some latest service packs for Windows 2003 which turn DEP on automatically.

The next major update of our flagship .NET grid control has been released today. Among the new features in this control you'll find row headers, row and cell selection modes which can work simultaneously in the same grid, customizable incremental search, auto-complete lists and searchable drop-down lists for the iGrid cells, customizable enhanced tooltips for cells which are not entirely visible, and many new enhancements and improvements.
The demo of the control was also updated to demonstrate the new features. We recommend that you read the whole What's New list and examine the new demo to find out more about all the changes in this new release.

This update of the control fixes two minor bugs and can raise a new own "Out of memory" error which can indicate the situation when there is no available free RAM.

The help file was also updated accordingly, and now it contains some useful information about the iGrid "Out of memory" error.
