Customer Speak

We had created a contact management system that associates a folder on our network with each contact in the system. However, we needed a way to view and manage files within that folder from within our system. Rather than forcing the user to open a windows explorer view and browse to the correct folder, we used the FileView and FolderView controls to re-create a rich windows explorer-style interface"

- Jeff Burgess, Farley & Son, Inc.

Thank you for quick replies and an excellent upgrade policy. Really outstanding flexibility, to be honest PS: FolderView and FileView are EXCELLENT components, I really love them!
Tonnes of features and rock solid quality :-)"
