Subj : Migrating from a Dos app
To   : borland.public.cpp.borlandcpp

I have an old Dos app written in Borland C++ 3.1.
I really need to update this app to a windows app.  The app does not have a
lot of visual user interface but instead has a lot of detailed file
manipulation under the covers.

I am trying to determine the best way to migrate this app to a windows app.
One of my problems is that in recent years the majority (90 %)of my
development has been in Delphi but to rewrite all the code in Delphi would
be a major effort.

Can someone give me an idea of the level of effort involved in updating a
Dos app written with Borland C++ version 3.1 to a Windows app using the
latest Borland C++  (version ???).
Any advice?
Any white papers / articles?

Thanks for any help,  Joe
