Hello Roland. Thanks for the tips + links, I will study it.
But all this must take attention to sorting. The size column is in a TStringGrid and the sorting must be adapted for numbers. For example, '100 KB' will be < '99 KB' because it sort with the first string, even if it is a number. The trick that I using is to add spaces before the numbers to get always the same length (15 characters), example: '100 KB' > ' 99 KB' But for playing with different units (KB, MB, B), maybe add a symbol before all the space added. In that case, the space ' ' for B, then maybe '_' for KB and '~' for MB. Example: ' 100 B' < '_ 100 KB' < '~ 100 MB' Have a perfect day.

Good. About file size formatting, do you know this library? ByteSizeLibPascal <https://github.com/Xor-el/ByteSizeLibPascal> Here is an interesting example taken from the documentation. // ========== uses SysUtils, uByteSize; var b: TByteSize; begin b := TByteSize.FromKiloBytes(0.5); WriteLn(b.ToString); // 512 B WriteLn(TByteSize.FromKiloBytes(1000).ToString); // 1000 KB WriteLn(TByteSize.FromKiloBytes(1024).ToString); // 1 MB end. // ========== Maybe you could use it (it's one unit). -- Sent from: http://mseide-msegui-talk.13964.n8.nabble.com/ _______________________________________________ mseide-msegui-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mseide-msegui-talk
