At long last a data aware planner that I can use :-)
One that does what is promised and is both powerful and straighforward to use.
Congratulations to all at TMS Software. I have tried and registered two previously ,I guess most us have tried before and been disappointed, but this TMS component has got the requirements EXACTLY right.
It is easy to understand the underlying concept and linking to ones own database is a breeze. I understood the demo within 15 minutes and had started my own project knowing HOW the majority of things worked within an hour - within 2 hours I had a workingsystem :-)
I am looking forward to building everything from personal diaries to resource planning systems. Now I can deliver planning systems that my customers want, when they want it and know they will be reliable !! Congrats again . Well done

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 was very impressed with the speed of your grid as some of the files being loaded are > 30000 rows, the performance is still very good. Although I don't use many of the newer advanced features I have found it to be a very solid work horse.

I fell in love with this great product, it changed my opinion and my vision in programming. I am using it at least 12 hours per day and everyday I understand what a clean code you have used to make it ...thanks a lot.

Wow ! I just got the TMS FlexCel and it worked right away. After a few tries I had an Excel file. First I thought it didn't work because it was so fast. It took 55 seconds with TExcelApplication, but with the TXLSAdapter it took about 0 seconds. I couldn't click on my stopwatch fast enough !! Great stuff ! Thanks a lot !
