While it can definitely be fun to roll your own, I would also investigate Craig Boyd's gridextras class. It's got a ton of useful features baked in such as column sorting, export, filtering, quick reporting and so on. You basically add an instance to your form, set a few properties and call its setup method when the form instantiates.

I have spent *manweeks* trying to get Grid to work for my needs. It has resisted quite effectively.
