Re: VCL Grids

It might seem slightly daunting at first but really fairly straight forward
for run of the mill tasks. To fill data programmatically, define your
columns at design time and just set the RecordCount and assign Values using
Record number/Column index at runtime. As you might expect, to bind to a
database just assign a TDataSource, create all the columns and away you go.

There's plenty demo's, decent online help, peer support via newsgroups and
the offical (normally within 24 hours) support through the DX website.

Buy it, try it, and you'll soon want the full subsciption!

Thanks all for the reply. Do you find the DevExpress easy to use. I
remember a few years back looking at these grids and I thought the
DevExpress has the steepest learning curve.

The TMS grid is based on the VCL StringGrid. It offers a few features not
available with DX such as the mini HTML inside cells and allows embedded
controls in cells. Support seems pretty good.

I have, but have never made much use of, the bergsoft grid.

DevExpress grid is by far and away the most powerful/flexible. Includes
various view types table,chart,card in both bound and unbound modes. Also
comes with a set of hugely flexible editors for use both standalone and
inside the grid. It may be overkill for some but it is capable of doing
basic tasks quickly and easily, while providing the capability to do
whatever you might ask of it in the future. The only thing to bear in
mind is that you may need to purchase the Printing System in addition so
its a bit costly, but still worth it. Support is generally first class
too.

Has anyone compared DevExpress vs TMS or bergsoft? Thanks Bob
