Hi Joylon,
Its sorted now. It just does not like the old dproj file, it doesn't
like a cut down edited version, it doesnt like a blank one and it doesnt
like a missing one !!!!
I made a new dpk project and saved it and then copied everything from
the old dpk and it works. It seems like it wants some new xml lines in
it or ELSE..
The issue here is that we have to work concurrently on 2007 and XE6
versions with the same source (and a few ifdefs). So the last thing I
want is the various clauses - includes, requires, uses to be in a
different order. When its 50 to 100 of them, it makes a huge difference
to source comparison.

It looks like perhaps the IDE is trying to be too clever and when it
doesn't find a current dproj is looking for a historical bdsproj to
upgrade from and not coping when there isn't one (it being
inconceivable that there would be anyone using an even older version
of Delphi that predated the bdsproj).
To avoid this, instead of deleting the dproj, try adding the packages
with the current dproj.
With the prior dproj intact, the IDE should identify that you are
upgrading and offer to save the old version with a different name (or
offer to save the new version with a different name, I forget which
way round. Though I have a niggly feeling that in the past I was
frustrated by the fact that it was the former, which imho is the least
useful approach!)
You have versioning/backups though, so it shouldn't matter which
particular named variety of these files the IDE chooses to mess with.
Once you have an upgraded package/project, you "Save As" to get a
file correctly named for new version you need, and then restore your
previous versions from source control/backups. Right ? :)

I am trying to migrate a group of projects (packages) from 2007 to
XE6. I deleted the dcus, drc and dproj files.
Even when I start from a blank project group and add the existing
project in I get
"Unable to load project *****.bdsproj
Of course it doesnt exist, only the dpk does. A dump of error details
follows. Incidentally I had the same issue last time migrating
another
group to XE5. That I had to recreate brand new dpk file.... and the
stupid thing was identical to the original one...
Any clues anyone ?
