Which is the simplest way to display a data grid in Windows 8?
For example:
NAME SURNAME BIRTHDATE
John Nime 17NOV04
Mary Kalas 28NOV06
Dinio Fransen 17NOV04
The data grid does not need to be editable, just display the data.
Thank you
This guy has done similar thing here.
But before doing anything review answer for this question on SO.
There is no data grid in windows 8 apps, but there is Grid View or List View control.

For example, when I input several letters, the corresponding words will show up automatically and then I can select them. But how to implement this kind of function? Which kind of UI element should I use ? Should I also input all countries in the world in cord data so that I can get the corresponding results ?
The image you've shown appears to be simply a UITableView that appears and is populated in response to what the user types in a UITextField.
If you're working with a table view similar to your screen shot, you can use a UISearchController. Here's a tutorial about it.
I want to build a windows 8 app in C# & Xaml , which has the home screen something like fluid grid where one group follows the second group like the start screen of windows 8 screen. !http://postimg.org/image/4ygwladm9/
I have implemented many a times a screen where we can have sections starting a new column altogether but no where I found a fluid thing as mentioned above.
The usual code is available here.
Please help me out if you have come across the same problem before.
Thanks in advance.
Got the answer in this blog.

I'm using a set of icons inside my Windows Store App for some functionality, I want to code for rearranging according to user wish like how we see in Windows 8 Start Screen. I want guidance and some resources for it, Do you have any suggestions?
Check out JQuery's GridView. Like Nate said. There are apps in the store that demonstrates the gridview. See CodeShow app. It's made from Javascript though.
I need to update my application's tile periodically with the count the amount of inbox items. Anyone can give me a reference or relevant link to a example or tutorial? I get my data from a webservice. I went on google, and all the examples is on button click. I need one that does this automatically every few minutes/hours? This is for the windows phone 8 start screen of the phone.
thanks in advance!
This is probably the best tutorial I have seen for live tiles in wp8:

There are a couple of different ways you can do this. You can use Azure Mobile Services OR you can use a background process for your app to update the tile. You can find information here :

I Would like to create my menu groups in my desktop application as the one shown in sample image. I would like to know which control is used for it? What extra works we need to do on it?
A reference to similar one is also welcome...
