Summary

ExpressVerticalGrid by Developer Express

Add an "inverted" grid control to your VCL applications. Formerly known as ExpressInspector, ExpressVertical Grid Suite is an "inverted" grid control for Delphi and C++Builder. With the ExpressVerticalGrid Suite, you will no longer have the traditional hassles associated with positioning and alignment of field labels and controls. Once you start using the ExpressVerticalGrid, you only need to drop a single control on your form, add the appropriate rows, and instantly create a consistent, flexible, and uniform UI across your entire application. And with you can also display multiple columns (inverted grid) from any data source instantly.

Powered by the same architecture and shared libraries first introduced in the ExpressQuantumGrid, ExpressVerticalGrid ships with all the features you have come to expect from Developer Express. It supports our industry leading Look And Feel and Style Controller technologies - and ships with the ExpressEditors Library

The ExpressVerticalGrid can be used in 4 different modes: Data Aware, Unbound, Virtual and RTTI. Whichever mode you choose to use, the VerticalGrid employs our unique DataController library to obtain and save data at lightening speeds. In virtual mode, the VerticalGrid does not persist data and so displaying thousands of records on screen occurs instantaneously!

And remember, just like the QuantumGrid and QuantumTreeList, ExpressVerticalGrid Suite is far more than just a single component. It ships with over 40 standalone field editors - all of which are available in data aware and non-data aware editions.

Easy to Use Design Time Interface - The ExpressVerticalGrid Suite provides advanced design time features that allow you to control virtually every aspect of the control without having to write a single line of code so you can focus on application logic and not have to fuss with grid setup
