ToolBar/ToolBarButton,, MainMenu/Menu/MenuItem and the DataGrid and related classes were replaced in .NET 4 with newer, more flexible controls. On the DataGrid main page I couldn't find that note until I'd read the entire document. Other related pages also don't clearly indicate that developers should opt for the newer controls.

I don't know for sure the Core 3.1 plans here yet, but I'm sure they'll be different from the support in the Framework.

@merriemcgaw so what are the replacements?

So DataGridView is the new replacement for DataGrid. What about the others? Thanks.

ToolStrip, MenuStrip, ContextMenuStrip etc. @OliaG has a table with the replacements - and then the corresponding child control on the ToolStrip like buttons etc.
