This example demonstrates how to create grid control application in vb.net.

### Creating Grid Control in VB.Net
6+
1. Create a new VB.Net WPF application project
7+
2. Install the [Syncfusion.Grid.WPF](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Syncfusion.Grid.WPF) NuGet package as a reference to your .NET Framework applications from NuGet.org.
8+
3. Add the following Syncfusion namespace in MainWindow.xaml to make use of the GridControl
9+
4. Add the GridControl inside the `ScrollViewer` control which provides scrollable area to other visible elements that it contains.
10+
11+
#### XAML
12+
13+
``` xml
14+
<Window x:Class="MainWindow"
15+
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
16+
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
17+
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
18+
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
19+
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:GridControlDemo"
20+
mc:Ignorable="d"
21+
xmlns:Syncfusion="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Windows.Controls.Grid;assembly=Syncfusion.Grid.WPF"
22+
Title="MainWindow" Height="450" Width="800">
23+
<Grid>
24+
<ScrollViewer HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible">
25+
<Syncfusion:GridControl x:Name="gridControl"/>
26+
</ScrollViewer>
27+
</Grid>
28+
</Window>
29+
```
30+
31+
### Defining Rows and Columns
32+
33+
Users can add the number of rows and columns in grid control by using [RowCount](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.Windows.Controls.Grid.GridModel.html#Syncfusion_Windows_Controls_Grid_GridModel_RowCount) and [ColumnCount](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.Windows.Controls.Grid.GridModel.html#Syncfusion_Windows_Controls_Grid_GridModel_ColumnCount) properties.
34+
35+
``` vb
36+
'Specifying row and column count
37+
gridControl.Model.RowCount = 50
38+
gridControl.Model.ColumnCount = 10
39+
```
40+
41+
### Populating Data
42+
43+
Data can be populated in grid control using one of the following methods.
44+
45+
1. Populate data by looping through the cells in Grid
46+
``` vb
47+
'Specifying row and column count
48+
gridControl.Model.RowCount = 50
49+
gridControl.Model.ColumnCount = 10
50+
51+
Dim r As New Random()
52+
53+
For row As Integer = 1 To 49
54+
For col As Integer = 1 To 9
55+
gridControl.Model(row, col).CellValue = r.Next(10, 100)
56+
Next col
57+
Next row
58+
```
59+
60+
2. Populate data by handling the [QueryCellInfo](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.Windows.Controls.Grid.GridModel.html#Syncfusion_Windows_Controls_Grid_GridModel_QueryCellInfo) event of Grid (Virtual Mode). This will load the data in and on-demand basis, ensuring optimized performance.
61+
62+
``` vb
63+
'Specifying row and column count
64+
gridControl.Model.RowCount = 50
65+
gridControl.Model.ColumnCount = 10
66+
AddHandler gridControl.QueryCellInfo, AddressOf grid_QueryCellInfo
67+
68+
Private Sub grid_QueryCellInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridQueryCellInfoEventArgs)
69+
If e.Style.RowIndex = 0 AndAlso e.Style.ColumnIndex = 0 Then
70+
Return
71+
'set value for column headers
72+
ElseIf e.Style.RowIndex = 0 Then
73+
e.Style.CellValue = GridRangeInfo.GetAlphaLabel(e.Cell.ColumnIndex)
74+
'set value for row headers
75+
ElseIf e.Style.ColumnIndex = 0 Then
76+
e.Style.CellValue = e.Style.RowIndex
77+
'set value for cells
78+
Else
79+
e.Style.CellValue = rand.Next(10, 100)
80+
End If
81+
End Sub
82+
```
