Making Experts/Wizards

The "Wizard" paradigm can be useful for some things my users do.

Is there a tool for making them?  A framework?  Other ideas on how to
make them?

Thanks--I need some orientation on this.

Use the TPage component, without tabs between the differing pages.  Have
your code check the input on each TabSheet, and only allow page changes
when the correct information has been entered.  Dead easy.
