No. All DCU files, from the original Delphi through Delphi 2005, are version-specific. You cannot use a DCU with any compiler version other than the one that created it. You shouldn't have to "rework" the units. Anything that compiled for you in version 3 should continue to compile for you now. -- Rob _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/delphi
