I'm looking to design a simple table editor to display and edit multi line
text displayed within a grid.  I can see two possible ways of proceeding:

1. design a custom control based on a Canvas storing the text in an array
2. use a control array of edit fields.

What are the pros and cons of both methods?

I'd do

3. Use a canvas, along with a single EditField that you move into position whenever the user clicks to edit a particular cell. (As an example, this is basically how editable listboxes work under the hood.)

Best,
