The registry is a critical component of your operating system, and any mistakes made while editing it can cause your machine to stop functioning. This document and other product documentation describes how to edit your registry. In most cases, Borland recommends using the Microsoft Regedit tool to perform editing. Whatever tool you use, you should, prior to editing your registry, make backups of your registry and thoroughly familiarize yourself with the editing tool and the registry editing process.

Borland Germany has offered us, as incentive for the Delphi-Tage, to offer the Borland Delphi 2005 Personal Edition as free download. In case one of you wants to take a look at it, go ahead, but be warned, it is the German edition, only. Service Pack 1 is included, others where never made available for this edition. If you understand french, you can download the french version from the delphi.developpez.com-page. You can use to translate the german version back to the english one (most of the software).

So also non german speaking coder can use the new personal version of Delphi. Or go to Why you should use D9 PE instead of D7 PE? Byomkesh Bakshi Movie Download Worldfree4u.

With D9 you can sell your programs also commercially. D7PE allows only freeware. Delphi 7 Personal Edition you can download from Go to get your license key. Here some tools and fixes for Delphi2k5: Components: Fixes: IDE Tools. I don't speak french, so I don't understand the error message. It seems the extraction of the install files didn't work.

To install Delphi2k5 you need to install all the needed MS Packages like net and stuff like that. Then install Delphi and run it once. Close it and copy the XMLRTL-fake into the bin-folder. Install Jedi Components, if you need them. After that you can install other components. EDB will add a databank. Maybe you'll need it soon.

To prevent troubles with the IDE use the FastMM Memory Manager Replacement I posted in the first post and replace the BorlndMM.dll with it. You can use my Customizer to start only Delphi W32. FastMM is then a must.

DelphiSpeedup will kill the rest of the startslowdowns. When you still have troubles to install it at work, maybe you don't have the admin rights. @unmei: I created the Unicontrols Personal Edition. It should be tomorrow also be online at the tntware-homepage.

The personal version of D9 has no databank. Professional and better versions support the full package of UniControls. I'm on it to do a Fullpackage also for D9PE using EDB as databank. When I have it I'll post it here, at my homepage and at tntware-homepage. @Siber: Yes, this is one of the top problems with D9. Also I'm on it to get rid of the memory bugs. It can be that I'll come up with a more tuned BorlndMM.dll replacement.

Atm I'm working with my I already posted. I was just unsuspended. Due to my sour prior experiences with this forum I no longer wish to be an active and contributing member to this forum, but before I leave (and it will be for good) I want to ask a few questions about programming.

Is delphi the best programming language to learn? By best I mean most useful, most applicable in Windows programs, and not too difficult to learn? OH NO!:O I said the 'B' word. And for those who recall my previous posts, I concede that x264 is the best video codec, and xvid is probably 2nd best. Also, thanks for the humour Doom9, the suspension PM came from my own self. I recieved a PM from siddharthagandhi saying I was suspended. So apparently I suspended myself.

Well, today I got an e-mail from Doom9 saying I was unsuspended. Thank you Doom 9, you unsuspended me from a suspension I inflicted on myself. Free Download O Nadaan Parindey Song here. Also, regards to Neuron 2, I hope you enjoy any other suspensions that you may do in the future. Also, I'd like to say thanks to the creator of StaxRip and RealAnime/xAnime. And since those Xvid developers are around here too, thanks to them as well. So back to my main point, which programming language is most useful to learn?

Delphi is a very good language, with a nice smooth ramp from easy to powerful. There's very little you can do in C++/C# that you can't in current Delphi, although if you want.net 2.0, you're pretty much restricted to C# or VB.net. Supposedly it'll be in the next Delphi. If that ever comes to pass.

Python and VB.net are similarly easy to pick up and give you great flexibility when you want it, with many hooks into the Windows platform, although only Python is made to be cross-platform. However, if you're learning a language for future employability and monetary prospects, Java is still the absolute king. I don't like the language, but most shops are stil running it. Having a working knowledge of several very different languages and deep understanding of one or two (fundamental principles transfer easily) is the best way to be prepared for any job openings, but Java, C#, and horrifyingly, VBA are still the most common.

Often the biggest hurdle of switching languages is just getting used to the syntax and standard library differences. (Except for functional languages.).
