[Leigh Wanstead]

Hello there,

May I ask how much cost to upgrade to D2007 from D7 enterprise edition?

TIA

Regards
Leigh

I agree. In the end, you must be crazy not to be on D2007. There are
just so many worthwhile improvements.

Myles.

I would really not like to go back to D7, D2007 is significantly more
productive.  I don't think it's as stable and I've lost a bit of work
due to it crashing (bout an hours work which I was able to reproduce
within about 10 minutes).  I like the refactoring tools, the code
templates save heaps to time (even just the automatic matching of
begin/ends), the error insight helps spot errors instantly, rather than
at compile time.  The docked layout is heaps better (on a large screen),

VCL Guidelines are really handy, and probably heaps of other stuff that
I now take for granted (but would hate to live without).  I think
everyone running D7 should upgrade D2007 (well, D2009 shortly), the only

reason not to would be if you're missing the code to some critical
components, or that they are now unsupported and wont easily compile
under D2007 - which was the challenging part of upgrading from D7 to
D2006 for me (getting all the 3rd party components to play nice with
each other).

Anyway - just my opinion.
