Hi,
In delphi 7, the IDE displays the desktop and none focused windows. Thus, taking up resources, and getting really annoying. How do I use the old IDE style where it acts like Microsoft word and all MDI Forms are not free to roam around and the desktop is covered by Delphi 7 completely?

This forum is not for Delphi programming language. Someone may be able to help, but you may want to try somewhere else.

I use Delphi. I haven't upgraded to 7 yet, but I did play around with the evaluation version of 7. Still, I'm not sure I know what you're asking. Ever since Delphi 1, I have not known its IDE to be as you describe. It has always been the multiple window style, and not MDI style. You can, however make its editor window "zoom" to full screen. Is that what you're thinking of?

I said someone may be able to help, but this forum is for FIRST, not Delphi programming. So if he needed quick help, this probably wasn't the place for it. He was probably one of the many to confuse this with a Delphi programming forum, which its not.
