There are no way to put strings as measures to PivotCube because there are no common way to aggregate them if it required (for example if you have 5 strings for some dimension row/column combination)

You may override TPivotGrid.OnGetDataCellValue event to put any string value into grid cell, but algorithm which you will use to get that string should be written in your task-specific code

You may found event code example in demo app which come with package. It replace 0 values with string 'empty' and do lot os additional things with colouring etc
