After much a mental ado I am going to upgrade my project to BCB6. I just realized that I did not have to recreate all the forms just include them. (boy was I stupid). So it was easier than I thought. Yes I actually thought I had to recreate all my forms (boy oh boy). I have moved most of the components that I use in BCB3 to BCB6 with out a problem except for a tiny snag in the TZipBuilder which I was able to resolve easily. Now the challenges.. 1. I got errors where the compiler included winsock.h and winsock2.h. will it be ok for me to edit windows.h and replace winsock with winsock2. ( I did this already and it looks ok so far). 2. Of course I have winshoes all over the place. This is not really a problem per say I can handle it, but is there a viable solution or workaround for the deprecated function TWinshoeSocket.Readable; 3. I get lots of errors concerning Trim ambiguity with AnsiStrings and WideStrings; and File functions ambiguity with int and __int64. Can I typecast my "direct" strings as AnsiString? and typecast my value like 5 to (int)5 ? Thanks for all your help in the past Remy. I will definitely need your (or anyone else) support moving from 3 to 6. Any other glitches I should know about please let me know.. Thanks again!!
