Add Control by Code for Windows Forms

ReoGrid provides different feature-set editions, and each edition has different reference requirements. Add references according to the edition used in your application.

• Minimum Edition - Minimum feature set (no formula calculation supported)
• Standard Release Edition - Standard features (Recommended)
• Extension Edition - Extended features, including script language execution integration (like VBA)

If you are unsure which edition to use, the Standard Release Edition with a single DLL (unvell.ReoGrid.dll) is recommended.
