Whats the Fastest way to get a DBGrid to ListView?

Hi, whats the fastest way of getting a DBGrid to ListView from a ADOConnection ADOQuery1 DataSource1

is there a way to skip the DBgrid all together and dive right into listview.

or is there a much more improved version of dbgrid that can act like a listviews neatness.

I got like 100,000 entries and it's taking forever to insert them,

I don't want to use dbgrid cos the scroll is weird, nothing like how we know in a folder or in a listview, is there any dbgrids like listview? Or a component that can use a datasource? that is like listview?

dbgrid is slow, even with vlv and other listviews that can handle data, is also slow. its not as fast as the dbgrid, though the dbgrid is very hard to view and monitor.
How many records are you loading? How many columns?

I've seen dbgrids and LVLs with 10's of thousands of records and not show any signs of being slow. Can you explain your situation a little better?

It way be that your data may need to be refined.
