Hi,
which is the easiest way to change a Visual C Programm to CPP-Builder 6?
Is a workaround available?

Lot of money is awaiting for someone who could
safely and accurately transform:
structured programs ->object oriented programs
M$ libraries->VCL
;)
It depends of the program complexity, but you have to
do it manualy.
Best regards,

BCB comes with a utility to convert VC-projects to Bpr. This is usually
available in the tools-menu. However, I cannot see it in my current
installation, but you can also start it direct since it is located in BCB
bin directory and is called vctobpru.exe (wizard, which invoke vctobpr.exe).
Note that this will not convert the project into a VCL with forms, but keep
it as a mfc-program which bcb can compile.
I have only used it once a few years ago, so I am in no way an expert.
Nevertheless, I hope it helps.

Palle,
BTW, I wonder whether it is possible that integrating a MFC form into
existent BCB project?
Thanks

Form as in a Dialog Box, or like a .NET forms thing?
Dialog boxes are in resources, so yes (give you have all controls on the
dialogs on your system),
.NET stuff isn't supported by BCB AFAIK.

I mean window, win32 things, not .net stuff.
In fact, the problem is how to use MFC class in a VCL project.

I could have taken on a demeanoring (sp?) tone and told you to RTFM, because
it IS all documented, either in the help file, or in the manual that came
with BCB. I just looked it up.

I wanted to know too, and that is exactly what I needed: Tools, Visual C++
Project Conversion Utility. Thank you!
