Hi,

Im new to Borland and have picked up a project using C++ Builder 5.
Opening up this project, it feels like stepping back 10 years.
To boost team morale, we wish to upgrade to 2006 and build the current
project with this.

The project currently depends on the following third party components..

Developer Express
Direct Oracle Access 401
CoreLab ODAC 5_55
DreamTree 4_12 ( no longer supported :-(   )

Is this simply going to be opening up the existing project in 2006 and
re-building or can anyone see lots of problems ahead.

Yes i could 'suck it and see'  but would appreciate up front any
opionions of people who have done something similar already.
