Is there an easy way to change all Build Delphi actions to XE3? I have a few projects with a lot of them, and doing it manually takes ages - there must be an easy way I am missing?
Thanks
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy
There’s no automatic way to do this, your best bet would be to open the project file in notepad and do a search and replace :
Replace
[CODE]\16\[/CODE]
With
[CODE]\17\[/CODE]
What this will not do though is update any library path references, so you may still have issues compiling.

Thanks, I’ll try that. Maybe something to add to your wishlist? I get this problem every time I switch to a new Delphi version, and it’s hard to know if I’ve got them all, but this tip will help checking at least (It never occurred to me to look in the file!)
