A few weeks ago I asked for recommendations on custom string grid components for Borland C++Builder 5.0. I investigated a lot of grids and decided on the AdvStringGrid from TMS Software and I wanted to tell the list why. The AdvStringGrid is actively being developed by TMS while many of the other grids have not been updated for a long time. The AdvStringGrid has built in functions for saving grid contents to file and loading the file back into the grid and also has OLE drag and drop features. Having these features built into the grid has saved me a huge amount of programming hours. It also has a large list of other features which may save me just as much time later. So make sure you evaluate this grid before you purchase an extra grid component.

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 am really impressed about your know-how around Excel's under the hood workings. I've been kicking the FlexCel API around a bit over the weekend and must say it is the best investment I made in a long time in both time and money! And the speed at which you guys respond is incredible !

You always have the coolest components for Delphi--nobody else even comes close.

Just wanted to say that these new components are amazing. Not only do you
put out an excellent product but you are always coming up with new and
innovative components. You guys must never sleep! A very large part of our
software product is designed with TMS components and the most common
customer comment when they see our new GUI is "Wow". So.... "thanks" - you
guys rule!
