[Purpose]

There are allot of controls that link to the internet, email etc that provide the Hypertext look.  Ie:  they change colour when the mouse passes over them and some offer the pointing hand look.  I recently took a look at the Microsoft Money 98 (C) [Copyright Microsoft] Beta.  This product included allot of these style of controls.  The difference was that they wern't just for internet or email links.  I like the look and it seems to be the coming thing.  Hence this set of components.  Enjoy!

[Installation]

These components were written in Delphi 3.  They should work in Delphi 2 (havn't tried - you have the source - let me know).  Probably OK in D1 too (except for VCL's that wern't in D1).  In Delphi 3 you can copy the files to your component directory and register them with the package MSAHyper.  Or you can add some or all manually via component install.  The pallette registration is in each unit. 17 components in all.


[Future Additions]

Grids to get the individual cells active rather than the whole grid.
Same goes for radio groups, calendar etc.
