Delphi 7 added the ValueFromIndex property to TStrings. Here's how to use it: 

var
  MyStringList: TStringList;
  // ...
begin
  // create a populate string list with name=value data
  // ...
  str := MyStringList.Values [MyStringList.Names [I]]; // old
  str := MyStringList.ValueFromIndex [I]; // new
