Custom Cell Type

I'm trying to create a custom cell type based on an Html Editor control I have (which is a wrapper on the MSHTML editor). I've used the source for GridTextBoxCellModel and GridTextBoxCellRenderer as a starting point but I've gotten nowhere. This code uses too many protected/internal fields from the GridCellRendererBase which I don't have access to. What I really want is a very simple way to specify that I want my cell type to be a specific control.

You should use the GridInCell example as a starting point instead. For drawing the HTML content when the cell is inactive you will have to do this using the IViewObject interface of the HTML control. This is not a trivial task. But we are working on infrastructure to simplify adding custom cell types from existing .NET control and we'll have samples then for displaying html in a cell, rich text etc. with version 2.0.
