When porting a program from BCB5 to BDS2006 (C++ Preview) when using
an external library (GR32) I got an error

  'TPoint' is no element of 'Windows'

in the line

  typedef Windows::TPoint TPoint;

(Same with TRect)

(In BCB5 is was accepted without problems...)

Has there been a change in BDS2006 (or is it just because the C++
personality is currently 'preview'?

Is there a 'best' way to fix this? If possible I would prefer not to
change the external headers...

Thanks a lot,

Michael
