[DUG] People see this?????

I have to admit, we stuck with Delphi 7 until mid last year for reasons such
as, well D7 is a good version, lots of code to convert, and lots of
components it re-install.
However, if I need to make any changes to apps. now, I convert them to
Delphi 2007 from 7.
I SHOULD be going to Delphi 2009, but figured I will just do it a step at a
time.

I was a little concerned about the extra work I would need to do to deal
with the changes to strings etc. in Delphi 2009.
