Getting errors when compiling the demo (ParentBackground property (XPMan) is
missing. Did I miss something?

Regards, Harry

You may need to reload the forms and re-save them to get rid of the
ParentBackground property for D6 and lower.  I'm not sure if there's
anything I can do about missing properties in Delphi 6 and lower,
unfortunately.

I had to do this for a few internal components... just don't have that
property in the dfm and in the oncreate of the form use the ifdefs to
determine if that property needs to be set.  I really hate that borland
messed up that property in D7 by having it default to false but not
really defaulting to false... if that makes sense. Smiley

Yes, I know exactly what you mean - ran into it with the EDB Manager several
times early on in the EDB development. Smiley
