You are attempting to do something that is dependent upon the
implementation of the STL. a vector iterator is allowed by the
standard to be an array pointer, but it does not have to be one. There
is nothing in the standard that allows this type of conversion.

This worked in BCB6 because that used a different STL which used
pointers as vector iterators, and does not work in CB2007 because it
uses a different STL.

Since this is an implementation dependent detail, you are best to use
code that does not rely on it. Either use vector<>::iterator as your
function parameters, etc. or convert to a pointer if necessary like
this:

	&*TheIterator;

In the code you posted, you can simply use the iterator itself with
pointer syntax (iterators to have * and -> implemented like pointers
do):

  ShowMessage(it->c_str());
