We have been using TMS components in our software development for almost 30 years. Throughout this time, we have consistently experienced friendly and high-quality service. Problems are not simply dismissed with the words "no error found," but rather, solutions are actively sought in collaboration with the customer. The components are well-designed and highly configurable to meet individual needs. We have also found TMS to be a reliable partner in custom development projects.

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.

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 don't know if you get many complements but I am constantly impressed with your tools. We use many of them in every application developed for the company I work for and unlike many, you have exceeded my expectations in both the tool and documentation.
