TdxDBGridLookupColumn
I've been getting more and more irritated about this thing today, and I am close to throwing my keyboard out of the window. This, TdxDBGridLookupColumn of DevExpress's, I cannot by any means figure out how it's supposed to work.
I beg thee for a solution!

well ok,
the dialog, where you define the lookupfield
Fieldproperties
- give a name, type and size(size only by stringtypes)
Fieldtype
- select lookup
Lookup Definition
-keyfield->select the name of the field, which should looked up, of your primary dataset
-dataset->select a dataset, where the data for the lookup come from
-lookupkey->lookupdataset field, which correspondens with your primary dataset keyfield
-Result Field->The field from the lookupdataset, which should displayed
hope its clear enough (ask if not),
thanks for the points :-)
good luck again

Do you think you could explain what field goes where? I'm new to lookups. (you don't have to, I'm as happy without :)
Thanx!
