TStreamCollection is a TCollection descendent which implements 2 calls LoadFromStream and SaveToStream which load and save the contents of the collection to a stream.

The collection items must be descendents of the TStreamCollectionItem class for the streaming to work correctly.

Note that the stream must be used to load collections of the same type.
