Nope - but when I was looking for spreadsheets a couple of months ago -
I came across the one below - also using XML - DL it but haven't
installed - the story of my life lately ;)

XPSheet

<q>
Ever wanted a powerful and flexible grid to show your data in a god
looking and usable way ? Well, here's your solution with XPSheet. If has
many features of Excel(R) just like formulas, cell-refreshes,
cell-searching for formulars and more. As you can edit every cell and
give it several formats like font-formatting, borders and
cell-information, you can use this grid as a powerful sheet and also as
a much better TStringGrid!

Another, user-friendly feature is the saving in XML. The grid saves and
loads W3C-conform XML-Code, so you can even edit your data as textfile
and reload it !

The grid has a formula-parser integrated that can execute functions and
recognize your cells with chars, so a valid function above would be

=B5 * Pi

The grid includes a runtime-design editor for Delphi. New features are
now cell-mergin (connect two or more cells), cell-masking,
cell-bordering. New: Following inplace-editors are now integrated: text,
select, color, html, hyperlink, button. Downloading

The SpreadSheet Component is Freeware. I give it out to the community to
give it something back.

The component has some bugs (mainly with merged cells), but maybe
there's someone out to fix that or to make a documentation or more.
Please mail me if you changed the components: Mail Me!

I get a 404 error on both these links, and a (very) quick google didn't
return anything useful...

Anyone got an alternative link???

Hi Simon,

I'm beginning to suspect there isn't one. An FTP search didn't get me
anywhere (the nearest match for size (538.9K) with file name sp.zip
turned out to be a file for SITE PUBLISHER v1.1) - nothing else looked
promising.

I think I found the author's site - from:

hi,

I have put out today my two freeware, well "components" out at

http://www.alex-adam.de

Spreadsheet and an Inspector-Component.

They are not ready yet and contain still bugs, so maybe there's anyone
interested and can develop something further.
I am hoping for some feedback into my board,

thanks,
Alex

That URL: http://www.alex-adam.de/ leads to EvolGrafiX which is also at:

http://www.web-zaehler.de/evolgrafix/ does that sound familiar? :)

I poked around there for a while with no success . . .
I can email the file if you want it . . .

sounds like you've got a potential treasure...

if it's no trouble, you can send it to me at (e-mail address removed)
(drop the .ok).

I don't often have the need for a spreadsheet at home, and when i do i
really don't want to have to install excel just so I can do a few lists etc
(I've played with sphygmic, and another whose name escapes me). I've been
following the 'spreadsheet please' threads for a while in the forlorn hope
that something will turn up (perhaps someone could develop one instead of
yet another MP3 player). As has been noted, it appears there's an
opportunity here....

many thanks

S
