Many times users want to include multiple images in the same cell. You can achieve this functionality by using an ImageList, the CustomDraw property, and the ImageList_Draw function of SharpGrid. In the approach described below we call the ImageList_Draw function to draw an image list item in the specified device context. In this case each of our image list items will be drawn in the same SharpGrid cell.

Option Explicit
Implements IsgGridCustomDraw
'Image list
Private Declare Function ImageList_Draw Lib "COMCTL32"
   (ByVal hImageList As Long, ByVal ImgIndex As Long,_ 
   ByVal hDCDest As Long, ByVal X As Long, 
   ByVal Y As Long, ByVal flags As Long) As Long

Private Sub Form_Resize()
   On Error Resume Next
   'Resize sharpGrid
   SGGrid1.Move 0, 0, Me.ScaleWidth, Me.ScaleHeight
End Sub

Private Sub SGGrid1_OnInit()
   Dim i As Integer
   With SGGrid1
      Set .PaintObject = Me
      'Remove all columns, but the heading column
      .Columns.RemoveAll False
      .DataColCount = 1
      .DataRowCount = 1

      'Set the customdraw property
      With .Columns(1).Style
         .TextAlignment = sgAlignRightCenter
         .CustomDraw = sgDrawAfterCellContent
      End With

      'Place some custom text in the cell
      .CellAt(1, 1).Value = "Sample Text"

      'Set the min height and width for the column so the pictures fit properly
      .ColWidthMin = 2400
      .RowHeightMin = 500
   End With
End Sub

Private Sub IsgGridCustomDraw_DrawCell( _
   DrawInfo As sgGridCustomDraw, _
   Response As sgCustomDrawResponse)
   Dim FirstImageIndex, SecondImageIndex, ThirdImageIndex As Long

   'Set the image index of the images we want to use from the ImageList
   FirstImageIndex = 2
   SecondImageIndex = 0
   ThirdImageIndex = 2

   'Draw the pictures in the first cell of the first row
   If DrawInfo.RowPos = 1 And DrawInfo.ColIndex = 1 Then
        'Draw images from the image list
        ImageList_Draw ImageList1.hImageList, FirstImageIndex, DrawInfo.DC, _
               DrawInfo.Left, DrawInfo.Top, 0
        ImageList_Draw ImageList1.hImageList, SecondImageIndex, DrawInfo.DC, _
               DrawInfo.Left + 20, DrawInfo.Top, 0
        ImageList_Draw ImageList1.hImageList, ThirdImageIndex, DrawInfo.DC, _
               DrawInfo.Left + 40, DrawInfo.Top, 0
   End If
End Sub
