Another great TMSSoftware component! And very excellent support and help by the TMS software team.

When I purchased TMS All Access, it was with the aim of using the controls, Flexcel and TMS Web Core in the next stage of the current project, using the economics of purchasing the various products separately vs as one product-suite as part of that decision. But having access to the full product line-up and in the phase of "what did I get for my money?", I learnt about XData (which I will definitely be using for the web side of things) and Aurelius (which will save me hours in terms of development time, and will effectively pay for itself if one translates saved time to money).

Try TAdvStringGrid from www.tmssoftware.com I find it absolutely indespensible...and for the price, its hard to find anything matching.

Another vote for Flexcel here, since the rewritten and updated Flexcel came out a year or two ago, I only use that. Mostly I use it to read XLS and XLSX files, which it does much faster and more flexibly than Excel automation, in my experience. If you also need to write XLS and XLSX files (which I do occasionally) Flexcel has the most amazing utility named 'ApiMate'. You can design your output report in Excel, including only a minimum of actual data, but with all the detailed formatting, headings, and column, row and cell properties you need. Then point ApiMate at the Excel file, and it generates a Delphi program to write the entire XLS file using the Flexcel API, with all the attributes matching those you created in Excel itself. It is then the work of a few moments to adapt the ApiMate-created functions to handle your real data. Magic! Flexcel support is prompt and helpful, too.

I would like to congratulate you and the team with an excellent set of components and customer service with no equal. I have bought a few subscription packages from other component manufacturers as well and I must say that TMSSoftware surpasses them all by your speedy and frequent releases and activity on your products.
I actually can't keep up with the releases and new features you keep on adding to your products. It is good to know that there is a component manufacturer who are as serious about their customers as we are about ours.
