[DUG] Delphi 2007 issue

[Robert martin]

Hi

I may have been to harsh on the Code Gear guys.  There is a request for 
more information on one of my error reports in QC.  (I hadn't noticed 
it).  I have provided the information (then Ctrl_Alt_Del the QC app due 
to it crashing with a comctrls error after posting my comment!)

Is there a place to report errors in the error reporting system :)
