Hi Nello,
Yes, we're all C++ developers from way back. I prefer C++ to Pascal, but
can work in either, if necessary.
We did some work in Delphi v2 but stuck with BCB once it was released.
I'm happy to give you whatever help I can in the conversion, but it's
probably better off the list - you can e-mail me directly if you want.
Regards,
Bevan
