Hi Glenn,

And thus Glenn let it be known to Peter:

  PL>> I'm very interested.. I saw Vis. Basic and Delphi in the shop the
  PL>> other day and I'm not sure which one to go for..

  GC> In many ways yes, but a whole lot more - if you consider how superior
  GC> TP/BP is to standard Pascal - then you have an idea how much better
  GC> Delphi is to VB :-]

I couldn't do that, I only started with programing last year and that was
with TP6 and I'm now using TP7, being at school is handy.. :)

  GC> Benefits over VB include:

  GC>     Standalone Exes (NO DLL required)
  GC>     Full API Access - go as low as you like
  GC>     Object Pascal (sort of a BP8) as your language
  GC>     Able to create DLLs (and OCXs in Delphi 2)

  GC> It is definitely my language of choice :-]

I'm yet to learn OOP technics.  So if I go Delphi I don't really
need tp7 anymore?

Also does Delphi still support win 3.1?  I'm not about to upgrade to win95..

Cya,

Pete
