I had not expected that this would happen for D2005 given the tight
timeframe!

Since I do not have the VCLUS directories (I have a German D8) I could
not test the replacement of the VCL directories!
I wrote a little test program (console application), in order to
generate a divide by zero condition. Here is the code:
program Project1;
{$APPTYPE CONSOLE}
uses
SysUtils;
var A,B,C: double;
begin
A := 109;
B := 0;
C := A/B;
writeln(C.ToString);
end.
If you run this at the command line you will get:
Unhandled Exception: System.OverflowException: Die arithmetische
Operation hat einen Überlauf verursacht.
at Project1.Unit.Project1() in C:\Dokumente und
Einstellungen\Jan\Eigene Dateien\Borland Studio
Projects\Project1.dpr:line 14

It's a bit strange in D8. After having remove those files and
directories, I do get an English template when choosing to create a
console application, but a German one for a VCL Forms Application.

That would be a good way to deal with the situation! What abou the
WinForms stuff. Is it sufficient to install the English .NET SDK
instead of the German one?
