In case it helps anybody, the component I found is TAdvStringGrid. It does all I wanted and much more. I was getting useful results within 2 hours of downloading it. Some of the additional features I hadn't thought of but have used anyway. The application has a significantly improved interface inside 1 day.

I'm really, really impressed with everything. And thanks for helping me with my newbie questions.
There is a lot of ground to cover when you start, but the possibilities are really mind boggling. I'm writing a blog system in WebCore, as a warming up for the rewrite of our webshop.
I'ts been a long time (I guess since delphi 1 and the first introduction of firemonkey) that I've been this excited. Feeling like a kid in a candy store right now!

Just wanted to let you know that WebData works like a charm.... it's saved me a lot of time! And time is money.

It is easy to use and powerful. I use it in cosole vb.net apps focused on reporting and calculation and it is fast in generating files. The feature of reporting by tags or "direct reporting" once known is a fundamental shortcut in report creation.
Not only it is fast, but also powerful and I can say this because I use it integrated with sql server: download data from sql, apply complex calculation by an excel template hand-defined in Excel, convert to values and upload back to sql server.
Size of this is about 60K rows X 70 columns X 6 (separate files). It works, obviously it consumes almost all the available 4 gb ram but it works even in 32bit mode.
When I use Flexcel I feel myself as I was driving a powerful sport car. Thank you very much.
