I have just started using Excel panes. Any suggestions on how to create an Excel Range Edit box in VCL? Am I missing something obvious?

The post below shows such a box (called Insertion range in the example). But then this appears to be .Net version of the Adduin Express.

Thanks!

Any other suggestions would be appreciated...

Sorry about the double post - can't figure out how to delete the second one...

Thanks Andrei - did some searching but found nothing new since your older post.

Right now I have a temp solution where I have a speed button next to an edit box. When you click the speed button I grab the address of the current selection if more than one cell, and otherwise it pops up the Excel Input box type 8. Not great but seems to work well enough for now.

I can probably capture changes to the selection if I am in the edit box, and update the address accordingly, but haven't tried that yet.
