<div dir="ltr">Hi Everyone,<div><br></div><div>I need to create a few small applications on my work computer that is a laptop with no CD drive. I figure Delphi 7 is all I need to create the few small apps that I need to manipulate some XML here and as my work laptop has a small SSD drive, D7 will be far better to install than XE2.</div><div><br></div><div>I have 2 questions:<br></div><div><ol><li>Where can I legitimately download D7 onto a computer without a CD drive?<br></li><li>Without the original CD, where will I find my D7 serial number? - I have it on the original CD, but finding that will mean opening up all of the old boxes taking up that side of the garage as I've moved numerous times since I bought the original D7 CD with the serial number. Only later versions (my e.g. XE2) emailed the registration, previous versions had it printed on the CD or box,</li></ol></div><div><div>I legitimately own both D7 and XE2 (Professional, both versions). </div><div><br></div><div>I logged into CodeCentral and downloaded Delphi7 but that download is only to burn a CD. As mentioned, I don't have a CD drive, I've got a small SSD with only 14GB left. </div><div><br></div><div>I do have an external 1TB drive, but expect that Delphi, like everything else, will insist on installing onto C: drive.</div><div><br></div><div>I was told that having XE2 will allow you to download all previous versions but that link simply states "this promotion is over" - so another dead end there.</div><div><br></div></div><div><br></div><div><div><div class="gmail_signature">Steve Peacocke<br>Mobile: +64 220 612-611<div><div><a href="http://nz.linkedin.com/pub/steve-peacocke/1/a06/489" target="_blank">Linkedin Professional Profile</a></div></div></div></div>
