Actually we could go further - how about a complete set of controls that support a
IDataSource interface, so we are not bound to TDatasets etc.
eg Full OO Databases/CORBA etc.

Perhaps, given the speech from Charlie Calvert that Gary shared with us,
this is the right time to push Borland for the data grid that has been
permanently on the white-board for the last 2+ years.

We use Infopowers. Unfortunately, we have rewritten or over-written
so much of the vcl and 3rd party libs already, we cant do anymore.
We live with the problems for now. What we did a while ago was to
not use the standard components at all, but rather use inherited ones.
That way we can replace them in one place with better versions when
we need to.
