Is this going to make any difference? That is not necessary. BDS supports the same binary DFMs that earlier versions did. What you will have to be careful of, however, is that a lot of new properties have been added to TForm since BCB 3, and some of those properties are going to default to behavior that you may or may not want. Watch out for the OldCreateOrder property in particular. If your code is using the OnCreate event, then the OldCreateOrder property can really mess up your form's run-time initialization. In any case, I STRONGLY recommend that you NOT try to import your existing BCB 3 projects into BDS. Like in earlier versions, BDS also has its share of problems importing project files. You should create new projects in BDS fresh, and then migrate your existing code over to them. Gambit
