[Mono-winforms-list] Adding a DataGridView in gui designer view

[Jonathan Pobst]

If you are trying to use MonoDevelop, it does not contain a GUI designer 
for Winforms projects.  Your best bet is to use Visual Studio to design 
your Winforms app, and then copy the resulting code/binary over to Linux 
to run with Mono.
