In article <3c422cdf$1_1@dnews>, Arioch /BDV/ says...

No need. Dynarrays take care of themselves.

Use '' (empty string) instead. This results in nil being assigned.

> Really 'string' :== 'array of char', yes?

No. There is a little more to it.
 
> Is there any chances for updating dcc32 in version 5?

I really doubt it. The current version is D6.

> I dont want to move to D6 and CLX :(

D6 has a very updated VCL as well. You won#t ever have to use CLX, if 
you don't want to. You can even remove the entire CLX from D6, if you 
like. There is still the familiar, but enhanced, VCL.

But this is slowly getting off-topic here. Followup-to set to 
borland.public.delphi.objectpascal.
