Thanks Alex good to know, Actually thinking about it at least for the simple case you are right, I saw I could set the factory property but then discounted that as there didnt seem to be anyway to configure the dropDown once the instance is created becuase getDropDown is private. However at least for a simple grid it can be built directly from the DataProvider without any extra configuration I sort of feel however that this probably wont be enough because I know that in this application/system the grids generally have a lot of custom formats, so I am gussing that there would need to be away to specify the grid structure.
