My BCB6 has a directory of sample projects.  I can't find a similar 
directory in BCB 2007.  What am I missing?

   Because of MS changing the rules about where we can store files, we 
had to move them. On XP they can be found in \Documents and settings\All 
Users\Documents\RAD Studio\5.0\Demos\
on Vista they are in \Users\Public\Documents\RAD Studio\5.0\Demos

David,

That was already when Microsoft started with Windows NT, 15 years ago.
The only thing changed recently is that everybody is running as normal user 
under Vista iso the defautl administrator under XP.
For everybody running NT/2000/XP as normal user (which I can really advice) 
this was always an annoyance that you had to change directory rights to be 
able to use delphi or c++builder
