I've been developing a desktop app in C#/.NET and I'm starting to think 
it wasn't the best decision.  The UI is comparably slower than a native 
app, the binaries need to be obfuscated to prevent loss of IP, and the 
heavy framework requirement has caused me some hurdles with potential 
clients.  I used C++ Builder a number of years ago and loved it, so I'm 
thinking of moving my desktop development work to C++ builder again.

I currently have the standard edition of Delphi 4.0, C++ Builder 4.0,
and JBuilder 4.0.  Can I purchase the upgrade version of BDS2006 
professional or do I need to purchase the full version?

I can't find upgrade policy on Borland's website, so if someone knows 
where I can get this information I would really appreciate it.

Thanks.

Tim Lowes
