In line with the naming convention Microsoft has adopted for Visual Studio 2008, the free version of Xceed’s Windows Presentation Foundation datagrid control is now called Xceed DataGrid for WPF Express Edition. Powerful and fully functional, this version-which remains free of charge-delivers a complete set of functionalities suitable for more casual users. This edition continues to provide full distribution rights, bugfixes, updates, and an unlimited number of licenses per company. Xceed DataGrid for WPF Professional Edition provides additional advanced features for the most demanding developer.

New features debuting in version 1.3 of both the Express Edition and the Professional Edition include Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and Expression Blend design-time support.
