I am seeking a TDBTree component that is very versatile, and i would like to hear some recommendations. I am specifically seeking one that would show a master record and "n" number of Linked table records. (I mean records from various tables). For example, the TDBTree would be hook to master table, and Detail table 1, Additional table, etc. 

Master Table Record  
  Detail Table 1 Record  
  Detail Table 1 Record  
  Detail Table 1 Record  

  Additional Table  Record  
  Additional Table  Record

I am not sure if this is possible or not. This is why i am inquiring. Thanks for any recommendations you may be able to provide.

And example would be

Master Checks
 Check Details
 Account Record
 Bank Record

Look at Developer Express controls. They have something alike what you're looking for. They have both a grid that can show details "in line", and some db-aware trees with many capabilities - IMHO if you're displaying that kind of that their Master-Detail grid is better than any tree, you're going to show different data in each detail.

I know this isnt DB aware, but if your open to alternatives then VirtualStringTree is a very good option. I use this tree component displaying most of my DB data to the user - it offers a very flexible and speedy tree/grid for any data. It is very easy to handle DB updating in the many events it provides for you.
