Hi,

i searched some time for such a component ... in vain!

So i developed myself a TStringGrid, that sorts columns with TDate, TTime, TFloat ...

I can't believe that this doesn't allready exists for Lazarus?!

For example i found http://www.tkweb.eu/en/delphicomp/kgrid.html BUT!! "Written as TCustomControl descendant, this is not a TCustomGrid enhancement"
So, no LoadFromCSV etc ... very bad!

Some sort of TSortGrid from Delphi-Zip would be nice.

Tipps are welcome!

TWidgetGrid from MSEgui supports it. There TDataEdit descendendants (TStringEdit, TRealEdit, TDateEdit...) can be placed in the grid and build a column of the given type. TwidgetGrid does not inherit from TStringGrid but from TCustomGrid. There is also TDBWidgetGrid which connects to a TDatasource.

The code is here:

I can't believe that this doesn't allready exists for Lazarus?!

The implementation is very complex...

Try the TsWorksheetGrid from the fpspreadsheet package (http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/TsWorksheetGrid). It derives from TCustomGrid, but be warned of some different behavior from the StringGrid here and there.
