Hi,
I'm using this Delphi enviroment first time. I installed this 30 day trial. Now it asks me to register it. I had this e-mail with attachment. There is said that To complete product registration, save the attached file into
your home directory before starting the product." Right and it looks like this Windows 2000/XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>. My questions are :
what is this username file and who does the program finds that file.
Thank you,
Martin |

What they are trying to tell you is save the enclosed "REGxxx.txt" file into the
C:\Documents and Settings\<username> folder where the <username> is the name of the
user that is currently logged into the computer. If you signed on as Administrator
then it would go into the "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator" folder and
if you signed on as "Someone" then it would go into the
"C:\Documents and Settings\Someone" folder. |

The file is the registration file. It is a bit of an awkward way to
register, I agree.
Open a command line and type:
ECHO %USERPROFILE%
and that will tell you the directory where you need to place the file
that is attached to the email you got from Borland.
Turbo Delphi sees that file and uses it to register your application.
Please post back here if you have any more troubles or questions
installing the product.
