Guys, I would like to ask if your development team would be willing to write a short knowledge base article about what you learned while making the latest Delphi 2009-compatible version of the grid. My team, and probably many others, are about to face the same battle (how to make our version-controlled products workable on old and new Delphis). It would be a real service to the community if you could share a few "lessons learned".
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
I cannot promise this at present, but I hope will publish our experience some days. The main 3 things you should pay attention to are:
I recommend that you read a wonderful article by Nick Hodges - "Delphi in a Unicode World":
Delphi in a Unicode World Part I: What is Unicode, Why do you need it, and How do you work with it in Delphi?
Delphi in a Unicode World Part II: New RTL Features and Classes to Support Unicode
Delphi in a Unicode World Part III: Unicodifying Your Code (sic!)
Thanks,
Serge
