Re: Enjoying 2007

Now since you said two options raised - might this be BDS2006? D2007 is
considerably improved.

No. I had D2007 and just recently upgraded to RAD Studio 2007. We never had
D2006. Hittin F1 pulls up a Help Topics Found window with tow option - (1)
D6OnHelpFix: TForm and (2) ms-help://borland.bds5/......

Pick either one and it will sit there with an hourglass for about 15 deconds
and then nothing. I will try to download the latest help fix and see if
that fixes it (I diddn't realise there was an update).

My help didn't work in D2007. I would highlight, say, TForm and hit
F1. I would get a screen asking me to choose which help I wanted (I
tried the top choice and the bottom) and then.. nothing. That's OK.
I have D7 on my other machine and the help works so I can use that.

That really should work now. We also released a help update recently
which adds content and fixes linking.

As a fast test, I just pressed F1 on a new Delphi Form and had the
TForm Class help rise (no questions asked).

We've made initial strides and more in the works, as well as
memory leak fixes.

Great. Any idea when the memory leak fix will be released? I really
want to get back to work on the next version of the software.

"When it's ready" - rev recognition rules prevent me from providing
specifics. The field test has had a build with over 90% of the fixes in
it to look at for a couple weeks. Feel free to send me an email if you
want to get an early view and I'll send you an invite.
