Hello David

The project has about 150 units and the names in 6 of the header files were 
mangled.
I corrected them as you suggested and the forms are now displaying.
Interestingly, the unit headers have the same mangled names in BDS2006 and 
they work.
C++ Builder2007 is a big improvement on BDS2006.

Many thanks for the help.
