<div>A while ago I took the supplied pdf for "Delphi Language Guide" to a photocopy shop, got a quote and had them print it out and spiral bind it with nice plastic covers. And every now and then I sit and read it while supping Java.

<br>yet). Most problems I get I google anyway - it's often faster than<br>finding a solution in the help - particularly when you don't know<br>exactly what you are looking for. I think the other solution is to get<br>the various books. The help has never been very useful in saying what's
<br>new either - I got a shock the other day when I discovered that records<br>now support methods and public / private parts (compatibility with .NET<br>I guess).<br><br>Alister<br>> Just wish a better help was<br>> available.
