We're trying to maintain something written by a programmer who's no longer working here, and having trouble with it. I'll try some of those suggestions.

No. You can try reading tea leaves, though: Borland's compilers used to include a copyright string in the program to cover Borland's code. As far as I know, those are still included now. You can determine the Delphi version by the dates in the copyright message. If the program uses run-time packages, then you can know the Delphi version by which RTL and VCL packages the program links to. You can also make some guesses based on what properties appear in the DFM resources since each Delphi version introduced new properties that would frequently cause problems for older compiler versions. None of these suggestions will distinguish between professional or enterprise, or reveal the update level. What are you trying to accomplish, anyway? -- Rob ----------------------------------------------------- Home page: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/delphi-en/ To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo!
