I just got my copy of 3.1, installed in on my computer, and fired up the app
I just finished fixing the last :-) bug in.  The first dialog box comes up, and
all the fields are mis-aligned.  As we have already begun preparing for dist-
ribution, I have a small feeling of panic as I work through to another dialog
box.  It too has all the fields misaligned.  Thinking that perhaps I have made
some heinous mistake, I fire up Borland's Resource Workshop, to see if perchance
their dialogs are wrong.  They are.  So here's my question:  does anyone know
when Borland will be releasing a fix for BWCC.DLL that doesn't screw up the
dialog boxes.  We ran a study to determine that our use community preferred the
graystyle to Microsoft's default white on black, so changing back really isn't a great option.

I know, all developers were supposed to get into Microsoft's beta program, but
when we started this, we never dreamed we would actually end up with a product
someone might buy, so we didn't want to get involved in beta-testing 3.1.  Boy
was I stupid.

thanks,
