I am trying to find database grid component (FireDAC driver), but there is nothing. I tried dbgrid, TFDGrid. I am using RAD Studio XE7 Architect.
Have someone encountered a similar problem?
I Do think that you are trying to create a multiplatform App (firemonkey). Create a windows VCL application and you will have the Data Access (datasource,...) and Data Control DBgrid and other components. Also, The Free Licence doesn't include the database components.
Embarcadero tells you to use the LiveBinding designer with a TStringGrid to simulate the DBGrid when creating multiplatform Apps.
Tips for VCL/Firedac: (create a datamodule where you drop your tfdconnection, and tfdtables), that way you will have access from all your projects units.

I'm using delphi 2010, and in order to create components i'd like to see the source of delphi components such TEdit, TButton... But the problem is this option is unavailable in my IDE, the type of any added component is written in black (and not in blue so i can see the source). So how can i get this option?
Thanks for your replies.
You seem to be using either a trial version or starter edition of Delphi. The source is deliberately not available. You would have to acquire / pay for a higher edition of Delphi, such as Pro, Enterprise, Ultimate, or Architect.
If you wish to study how components / controls work, find a popular third-party one. For example, I've been experimenting with Chrome Tabs lately.
I have Delphi XE7.1 Ent, kbmMemtable Pro, kbmMW Ent installed.
Thanks to Kim Madsen, it was successfully installed.
However no one kbm objects/forms component appears in Delphi IDE Tool Palette.
How to fix it?
Create a new project. For example a VCL forms project.
Now you will see the wizards in File/New/Other/Components4Developers.
Or take advantage of one of the many sample projects and adapt/alter it to your needs.

Is there some possibility to use Delphi xe7 form in Delphi 7 project, without create DLL file? I found "Monkey-Mixer" which allows to use FMX form in VCL project, and I wonder is there same tool for use new VCL forms in older versions of Delphi?

No there is not. You cannot link code from different versions of Delphi into the same executable.
We have VCL applications that use the DevExpress TdxRibbon or XE2 TRibbon components, with one being written using the MVP design pattern.
We now want to create a web version of that app, so I'm looking for IntraWeb components that can reproduce a similiar ribbon bar.
There wasn't a suitable component in the TMS Software IntraWeb Component Pack, and DevExpress don't make web versions of their controls. A Google search didn't locate anything suitable in the first 10 pages of results I looked at.
Does anyone know of a Intraweb component that can produce the effect I'm after, or do I need to script it directly into the page?
I'm migrating a Delphi project from old Delphi 2.0 IDE to the new RAD Studio XE2. I need to abandon QuickReport components. To which free report component can I migrate to?
I see XE2 has FastReport and Rave Reports included. Which one do you suggest me? Or are there other ones?
I look for the easiest to convert to, so the more similar to QuickReport I guess. In my project these QuickReport components are used:
TQRPreview
TQRBand
TQRSysData
TQRLabel
TQRMemo
TQRDBText
TQRShape
TQuickReport
TQRDetailLink
I already tried some automatic converters, but they need to have QuickReport installed, which I don't have.
Thanks!
Reading this blog post, I wouldn't set on Rave for any new project.
