Re: Upgrading a program from Delphi 6 to 2007 - What's nessicary

I heard that all I need to do is install any third party components in D2007,

There's a rub there. I moved several huge (300,000 lines 200 units each) D4 programs into D2007. There were problems from many components. Some new components like TTrayIcon introduced by Borland interfered with same named components from other sources. Many compiler warnings and new hints made to track down. Some components made moved from proprietary to open source (Apro 2.57 to 4.07 biggest messes were here). You do need source of all components or binary updated bpls of component vendors. Many old componets needed to have different uses units (Borland changed in D6 designers).

Once components installed it worked smooth for most to open, compile, fix small error, recompile.
