You do not know what you are talking about! One of the upgrade versions required your builder 5 disk, or installation. If your builder 5 disk was also an upgrade it would not accept the disk. So you needed the installation. Builder 5 upgrade required builder 4 installation. Hence, builder 4, 5 and 6 had to be installed. (and that's the house Jack built) I am just curious why TeamB likes to comment on things they don't know anything about. If you had the same problem or a possible solution, by all means pipe up. But if your not sure of what you are talking about, please don't take the opportunity to evangelize. Believe me, if you are reading these posts, you _are_ on the bandwagon. If you cannot contain such urges, post how great Borland is on a Microsoft users group!
