1. About TDBFlyTreeViewPro and TFlyTreeViewPro Pro control
TDBFlyTreeViewPro and TFlyTreeViewPro  Controls:

The TDBFlyTreeView and TFlyTreeView Pro control is an advanced interface
for displaying and editing hierarchical data.

common control, and expand it functionalty with power and fast additional
properties and functions, which give abilities that go far beyond those
of the standard tree control.
The TDBFlyTreeView and TFlyTreeView Pro control consists of a collection of nodes
which are placed in the left column of tree.
Each node represents a data item in the tree - data displayed and edited in right
column of tree.
Nodes are organized into hierarchical relationships, and are connected by tree
lines that represent the "branches" of the tree.
Each node has properties and functions that determine its
relationship to other nodes in the hierarchy.
   TFlyTreeView Features and abilities
   Displaying Data TFlyTreeView stores all nodes in memory, but data for cells
    connected to each node retrieved to translate

    If EditorStyle is editor with Ellipsis button , when the user clicks on button
    tree fired OnEditButtonClick - for  popup custom data editor.
    Data Validation All Data after editing retrieeved by tree through OnValidateNodeData, on this event user can process data for validation, translation and storing.
   Working logic: your tree can have working logic - checkboxes and radiobuttons, for which you can adjust images.
    For want of change of a logical state of Node the states parent and child nodes can be changed.
    Process of switching you can operate through appropriate options, function and events
   Professional Design: TFlyTreeView have set of incredible properties which allows user to design tree which  gain look and feel of most popular applications such as MS IE4, MSOutlook, MSOffice97.

    texture or a complex design to serve as the background area for the tree.
   Flat, Hottrack, Tooltips - Will give to your tree Office97, IE features without requirement ComCtl4.7+
   ToolTips Now let your users read the full text of each tree node!

    Imaging of Tree Nodes: TFlyTreeView have internal Imagelist for increase of speed of drawing and decrease of use of graphics resources.
     The TFlyTreeView Properties Editor provide a custom interface to the Images collection, making it easy to add
     the pictures you need for your application.
    MultiLines and Height of Nodes: Each Node can dispalying data in multiline (wordwrap) mode. For this purpose it is enough to set On an option TreeWordwrap.
     Each Node can have various height to see more information.
     The management of height of Node can be carried out through change of property IntegralHeightItem (for all nodes) or through event OnGetIntegralHeightItem (for each node)
    Without ComCtl 4.7+ and MFC DLL's r equirement  TFlyTreeView is a 32-bit control and
     You don't need any extra DLLs or OCXs, minimizing run-time distribution size.
    Multicolumn support

     - allows you edit/store datas with minimal coding
    Prompt, DefaultValue, Picklist, NodeData, Visible, ReadOnly - these properties of each column
     allow you to create very ease and convenient treeviews.
