Hello,
I will class that as a FUD statement [see below for defination], and your at
Step #2
Without showing exactly which API [ basically that is MapX ] is incompatable
and having support code examples ------- *FUD on them*
Delphi [ object pascal ] has been my language of choice for *years*
Still have TurboPascal 2.0 in the closet.
Since I don't have MapX, I can't get specific but will help with what I can.
Since you don't want to *loose* Delphi subscribing/posting to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is a help
There are not a lot of posts, like MI-L, but your not alone by using Delphi
!
I'm already beginning the transition to *nix with Delphi 6.0 and Kylix.

For those who do not know the term, "FUD" means Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt.
It's a technique for negative marketing that was originally used by IBM in
the mainframe business. By raising spooky questions about the future of
competing products and companies, IBM could play the role of "the only safe
choice" and leverage its huge size and vast experience to keep corporate
customers from investigating hot new alternatives.
Ironically, FUD was perfected by Microsoft during the company's anti-OS/2
campaign of the mid-1990s and used quite effectively against IBM. Here are a
few examples of FUD at its finest.
