WARNING #2:

Have you read this article yet?  http://dn.codegear.com/article/38472

It says: Do Not Use Multibyte Characters in Install Paths.

"Don't use double-byte characters in the path or directory for installation.
Delphi and C++Builder 2009 are Unicode-enabled, but the installer has not
been enabled for Unicode."


CodeGear is just a joke!!  They keep going on about a Unicode enabled
IDE and Unicode enabled software, but their installer chokes - it's
not Unicode enabled!  hehehe.... Practice what you preach CodeGear (or
was that CodeFear).
