I hadn't thought of that, but since personal edition is for non-commercial use, I'm not sure if we can use it (of course, for our purposes, the DFM's created by Personal edition would not be used commercially, they would be sent to developers who are using Professional edition, but still I'm not sure of the usage leeway here). Also, we're using D7, and it seems that borland.com/downloads does not provide Personal D7. >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Sid Gudes >Sent: Thursday, January 12, 2006 8:43 AM >To: Borland's Delphi Discussion List >Subject: Re: Anyone know of a standalone DFM editor? > > >Thanks to all who replied.
