TFileCtrlEx is a programming component that contains extended VCL file controls with shell icons. It can be integrated with software projects running Delphi 7 and RAD Studio (10 Seattle, XE8, XE7, XE6, XE5, XE4, XE3, XE2, XE, 2010, 2009, 2007).

The utility includes extended editions of TFileListBoxEx, TDirectoryListBoxEx, TDriveComboBoxEx, TCheckFileListBoxEx, and TCheckDirectoryListBoxEx. It's part of TMS System Controls Pack, a bundle with many VLC components like a vCard file reader and writer, Aero controls, task dialog with advanced features that emulates the Windows Vista look on other operating system versions, as well as a layered form that converts Delphi forms to Windows 2000 layered windows.

It's not possible to individually purchase TFileCtrlEx so you have to get the complete bundle if you're interested. There are licenses for both personal and commercial use available for just one developer and for any number of developers connected by the same website.

The downloaded package includes the setup files for all supported RAD Studio versions and Delphi 7. You can check out some demos but they are not for all components. A samples overview page complete with screenshots should give you an idea of what you can do with TMS System Controls Pack.
