I have figured out how to make a TGrid, and inserted TGridColumns of my choosing using the IDE.  But how do I make cells within the grid.  I know the database code cane do it, but I'd like to make my own grid.  I don't see a Cells[x,y] or Cells[y] parameter I can reference so I can make a receipt.  

Thanks
Erick

I think you link a DataSet, and then add rows to that. The dataset
doesn't have to get data from the web.
