85/** specifies a model for a control which can display form data in a table-like way.
86
87	<p>In opposite to other form controls, grid controls do not only
88	display the single current value of a column they are bound to. Moreover, they do
89	display not only the current row of the form, but all rows (at least potentially, limited
90	by the control size, of course).</p>
91
92	<p>The table rows in a grid control correspond to the rows in the <type>DataForm</type>
93	the control belongs to, and the columns correspond to single columns of the form's row set.</p>
94
95	<p>Columns of a grid control are modeled by own objects, too. They are very similar to usual
96	<type scope="com::sun::star::form">DataAwareControlModel</type>s modeling other "single-value" controls, but they are not described
97	as own services. Instead, they need to be created using the <type scope="com::sun::star::form">XGridColumnFactory</type> interface.</p>
