1. Use CJ scrollbars and attache them to the left RC so we have more control (only show the horizontal scrollbar)
2. Use a hack (SetCustomDraw with MeasureRow) to know when the right RC scrollbar has been changed. This allows us to synchronize scrolling. Maybe there is a better way to do this, but I don't know if there is.
3. Add all of the left RC columns to the right RC, but set them to be invisible. This makes it easy to synchronize sorting & grouping, at the expense of increasing memory usage.
4. Prevent sorting, grouping, etc.. on the right RC to make things easier.

Thank you very much for the interest and support we are offering ...

Correct ... it is always the same record in both RC's, but the information displayed in each RC is different. Specifying : 

a) Rows are all the available materials to manufacture products

b) Left RC columns shows the attributes needed to manage materials (code, description, family,. etc ...)

c) Right RC columns shows all products to be manufactured

d) Left RC is used to visualize and organize all the available materials

e) Left RC is used to specify the materials needed in each product to be manufactured

Conclusion, the row on the left RC provides the necessary information to make selections in the right RC rows

Here's the test project with some small modifications and new records added : uploads/4173/TestDualRC_V2.zip

In terms of functionality required (if it was possible), we need to sort rows, move columns, grouping columns and filter data (these actions are performed in the left RC and right RC must automatically adapt to those changes).

I think the idea of scrolling columns when certain columns are frozen makes sense. in the case you are looking at. I'm guessing you want it like excels window "splitter" which gives this effect. I'm not sure if it can be done in the report control and might need a specialist spread control like Farpoint's spread.

You can be achieved by using your own scrollbars with one report control and just turning on/off visible columns, but it's a bit of fiddling!

Good luck!

Hi,

Maybe I don't understand your requirements...

A record on the left RC and right RC belong together? Correct?

Yes: I guess you use SortingChanged and GroupOrderChangedEx event to "synchronize". I used these events to get the sorting and grouping on both RC's in uploaded project. Maybe it's enough but I think you need more functionality... Maybe SortPriority and GroupPriority will help you further to meet your requirements but then I need to know the WHY and HOW (see No below )    

No: I still don't understand  so here's test project and please add records to both RC's  uploads/3701/TestDualRC_V1.zip
