   One commercial package which has been quite useful for me is TurboPower
   Softwares' Object Professional (for TP5.5 & 6.0 OOPs) and their non-object
   version Turbo Professional (for TP5.0, 5.5, 6.0, not sure on 4.0). Both
   versions have units (with source) to create arrays either on disk or in
   EMS. The package also contains a wealth of other routines which have
   saved me considerable time in writing ad hoc programs. 

                              Dave.
