Yes, extra 3rd party components will need upgraded to D7 versions (DCUs, BPLs, etc.) Usually when you buy the components, they come with D5,D6,D7 versions but you may need to reinstall them because when you installed them before, they only installed into the D5 IDE. Of course the Delphi components are automatically upgraded. The biggest challenge I had was older components that the software designers didn't upgrade to D7 version and that I had to abandon because I didn't purchase the source code. But that was a rare thing. Most good components have D7 versions. And the subtle differences between D5 to D7 didn't seem to affect much of the work I had done. Many of the changes were behind the scenes in the IDE and I think to variants and automation (OLE) stuff. You will get errors if you try to compile programs which use older version DCUs. You cannot compile programs in D7 with D5 DCUs or BPLs. I made the conversion and after a few months, I dropped my D5 version and eliminated all references to the D5 version so that I had a clean working development environment, although some might keep both versions operating. D7 has also had some updates, that you should probably apply only after you install and run it at least once. You get that from the Borland web site after you register. D7, in my humble opinion, was a much better version than Version 5 both more capable and more stable. With that said, I still never regretted the upgrade. I fear that will be it for Borland Delphi in Win32 development. So I have figured my next step is to start to study .Net development before I make that upgrade.
