I've not worked with Interface builder (and so NSTable view), Delphi or VB but an Xplatform control like that which is much more more spreadsheet oriented and ideally supporting merging cells and freezing the top X rows and first X columns for scrolling would be great. IMO the lack of such a control is the biggest single hole in the RB framework. It's a hard control to create and get 'right' Xplatform and keep flexible at the same time, but it would make RB a much more powerful RAD tool and really needs to included and not a 3rd part plugin. The Listbox is very flexible but it's heritage of being a finder like list often makes trying to use it as a sophisticated grid control a lot of work and ultimately a kludge. - Karen _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
