DM Please continue support for D5

rbuser

I've just been catching up with the RB 7.0 posts.

RB 7.0 will be for D6 & D7 and MAYBE D5.... And, as I understand it, there
is not going to be a bug fixing version of RB 6.03. Not that 6.03 is bad,
but there are patches for things and things that DM have said would be fixed
etc. RB 7.0 is the upgrade path.

But I am a D5 user, with no desire to go D6 or D7 (and have to upgrade all
the packages I use etc. etc.). So for me this means that Report Builder does
stop a RB6.03 ((((

I'm not very happy about that. Am I the only RB user with D5? Would any
others like to join me in asking DM to continue support for a D5 variant?

we are still using D5 too.
Major development (without RB) is still under D3
due to component issues.


Kind regards

Yes, we will support Delphi 5 in ReportBuilder 7. This applies to the
Enterprise, Professional and Standard Editions. The Server Edition is
currently relying upon Delphi 6 features requiring update pack #2 for Delphi
6 to be installed. At this time we are only releasing the Server Edition for
Delphi 6.

Thank you !

Thanks for being so responsive!
Can understand about the server version needs. There are still a lot of
non-server D5 apps using RB so this is fine.

I'm a D5 user also, and I wish there was another minor version release
before the jump to 7.0. There are several fixes promised that would be nice
if they were available in version 6.
