I've been using Borland C++ Builder 5 since two years ago. Now I'd 
downloaded the trial version of Builder X thinking it would be great.

But SURPRISE! where is the VCL? Where are the substitute?

I can't compile any GUI application. May be it is because I normally use 
  the "New Form" button on Builder 5. Where is the tool bar to create 
Buttons or Shapes?

I've noticed Builder X isn`t "Builder 7" but I want to learn something 
about it.

Please, Builder is correctly installed (almost so I think) Can anyone 
send me an URL where I can find tutorials or some sample codes for GUI 
applications??


                        Thank you and please excuse my English!

Knuckles,

There is no VCL or any other RAD framework for desktop GUI applications in
C++BuilderX.  There is, however, one for mobile phone applications.

That's very disturbing.  What about existing code?

(Sorry, cancel didn't work.)  Further research has turned up the whole 
BCB/VCL migration path controversy, and the promise of a forthcoming 
announcement on 15 Dec .
