From a blog pointed at by a post on the Borland IDE NG - replace the text in default.htm and the welcome page totally vanishes - its beautiful!!!!!!

<html>
<head>
<title>Welcome Page</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function closeWindow() {
this.focus();
self.opener = this;
self.close();
}
</script>
</head>
<body OnLoad="closeWindow()">

</body>
</html>

You want speed?  Even better, save the following to .reg file and run it.  Gets rid of
together and welcome page in one hit.
Obviously export your existing registry for BDS first.

And do yourself a favour and download DelphiSpeedUp 1.72 - just brilliant! -

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\BDS\4.0\Known IDE Packages]
"$(BDS)\\Bin\\startpageide100.bpl"=-
"$(BDS)\\Bin\\stide100.bpl"=-

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\BDS\4.0\Known IDE Packages\Delphi]
"$(BDS)\\Bin\\TGIDE100.bpl"=-

And if you want to have relaxed eyes at the end of the day,  run this colour scheme.

Speed is not the reason I wanted rid of the Welcome page. After the first couple of times the only thing I was using it for was re-opening projects, and then, because it doesn't show the path I opened a backup of a project by mistake and wasted a lot of time merging the live and backups together.

I promised myself I'd use File | Reopen but its so seductive having the thing in front of you - now its gone ......

Nice - I might use that one, with the projects displayed in the centre.
