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.

Sorry to say that I regret about my Scripter purchase. I mean, I regret that I didn't purchase it before ;-)
I implemented the routine I needed in my application in less than 4 hours, thanks to the excellent examples in documentation and available features.
I'm even "scared" because everything worked in the very first time and every time this happens there is something really wrong "hidden" that only shows up when the application is running at the customer (one of the Murphy's Law).
Congratulations.

FixInsight brought us an immediate gain in code quality by highlighting possible problems that went undetected until now.
We included it in the static code analysis on our buildserver, so every commit by a developer is also checked with FixInsight. It is a tool that really helps you to make your codebase more solid and also improves readability by reminding developers to stick to conventions.
One should not forget to mention that Romans support is great.

Once again - thanks guys! I am truly impressed with the prompt replies to my many questions and comments. I have been so impressed with each and every functionality of every one of the TMS components I have used in my application. With your components added capability, Borland seriously needs to think about packaging your product with Delphi instead of their own. Keep up the awesome work!!
