| General Question on Delphi 2007 Updates |

Hi!
I just moved from Delphi 2006 to Delphi 2007 and of course installed
Update 3 (about 700MB) and the Help Update.
Both Updates asked me what I want to do. I can choose between
"Upgrade"
(needs new Serial), "Repair" and so on.
In general on Updates, what is the best choice if you install Delphi and
the updates on a fresh machine?
Thanks!
Lincoln

I used the update 3 installer to update an existing Delphi 2007. I did
this with the "Upgrade" option.
I also used it for a new installation. I did this with the "Install"
option (IIRC)
Tiedo.

No answer? Strange.

Interesting - so the "update" can also be the source of a new
installation on e fresh windows. I did not know that.
Thank you.

In fact "update" does a complete uninstall and a complete install.
Choosing for the install-option just skips the uninstall.
I think, choosing for "Repair" also skips parts of the install.
