If you call StretchGridColumns, you don't have to perform string
manipulation. Just call the procedure and the work is done for you.

Grid.ColWidths gives direct access to the column widths, but alas:
this protected TCustomGrid property isn't published by TIB_CustomGrid
or TIB_Grid. So if you want to use that, you have to make your own
subclass of TIB_(Custom)Grid.

PS:
About that third party auto-control-resize thingy: if this works
proportionally, you could have done it yourself by adding akRight and
akBottom to the Anchors of every control on the form.
