about the VCL i use for the contact list...
until i was using delphi3, i was using a Listbox, cause standard Treeview was not supporting customdrawing
switching to delphi6, i switched to the standard Treeview
unfortunately Treeview is not so good, as it does not support invisible nodes, and is slow on large lists
now i'm trying to switch to VirtualTreeview
http://www.lischke-online.de/VirtualTreeview.htmlit's a very big vcl, about 600k source, 300k uncompressed code
i hope it will be a good choice and won't have to turn back to treeview again, it's a risk, i know
comments?
