Hi Nello,
In my experience it is often better (if not necessary) to rewrite rather
than trying to run some sort of conversion.
There are too many non-standard or ugly things in Paradox that can be
handled much nicer in Delphi/BCB.
I'm currently going through this exact same problem with a rather large and
cumbersome Paradox project, which started off in version 4 for DOS! It has
since progressed through almost every version to Paradox8 (by Corel), which
I really despise now. So we've bitten the bullet and are currently
converting to BCB and improving dramatically in the process.
Regards,
Bevan
