So you are stating the same thing I did. You do not have to install the
previous version to upgrade like the original poster stated. I've also never
been asked on any version of BCB or Delphi upgrade for an original disk. BC++
did ask for a disk, but BCB never has for me. You have to continue to own the
original new install that is your qualifier to the upgrade product any ways so
even if it asked for a disk (note not require that product to be installed on
your machine) there is no big deal.
BTW, just yesterday I installed BCB6 upgrade on a machine that has no previous
version of BCB on it nor did it ask for my qualifying product's disk.
