Most of us don't care to go backwards with our code. We're not in

code needs to be forward compatible even though his app needs to work
on (as in "crunch") previous versions of Delphi.

I don't think of it so much as me going backward. I prefer to think of
it as supporting people and companies who have not yet moved forward.
At a significant hourly rate. :)

<chuckle> Yea, that works.
