Hi, 

I tried posting this through Google Groups, but apparently it did not show up on newsgroups.borland.com.  I apologize for the repost.

I just loaded the evaluation version of C++ Builder (released in Feb. 2006.)  I am currently using Visual Studio for all of my development, and I would like to be able to import my current projects into C++ Builder to see how it compares.  Is this possible?  I tried to create a blank project in C++ Builder to add files to, but it seems that Borland has no option to create a "blank" project.  I tried creating a project.  This replaced one of my original CPP files with a default CPP file for Borland projects (this didn't exactly thrill me.) 

Ideally, I'd like to just take a DSW or SLN file and load it directly into the evaluation version, compile, and run.  Is this possible?  I've googled for converters, and apparently one *used* to exist.  Does anyone know of a converter that I could download?  I have tried e-mail Borland support, but they haven't responded. 

So far, my first impression of Borland's C++ Builder is poor, and that is a real shame. 

Thanks, 
Brian
