So, I Borland products back for several years. Can I assume
that I can use the SDK from the Borland site?

Do you call it from the Help Menu like an .exe ?

Yes, some would feel need for that sort of self help. My
favorite mental health is a nice meditation of not thinking,
which I admit is not easy for programmers. One needs to
get one's body away from the monitor long enough to
breathe and relax and "forget the project" to release all of
illusion of a never ending project. My retired Lockheed
programmer once told me when I was getting frustrated,

"Programming never ends. Don't worry about it."

Thanks,
Jodell
