So youare here! Maybe you are here because you have used Delphi before and you want tosee what is new in Delphi 4. Maybe you are here because your boss told you to behere. Or maybe you are here as a complete beginner who would like to explore thewonderful world of Windows programming.</P><P>Regardless of why you are here, welcome! I can assure you that the trip will bean interesting one. You will no doubt find it enjoyable, too. It will involve somework, but there will be some fun thrown in along the way. Believe me when I say thatthere's nothing quite like taking a passing thought and turning it into a workingWindows program. I hope you get the fever and lose yourself in hour after hour ofprogramming.</P><P>I encourage you to experiment as you read this book. Putting the book down andplaying around for a while can prove more valuable than the best teacher. Gettingthrough this book isn't a race. The first one to reach the end doesn't receive aprize. I'd rather you spent 21 <I>weeks</I> learning Delphi programming than to rushthrough this book without taking time to apply the concepts discussed here. By theway, my experience has been that the best way to learn is to have an applicationin mind that you want to write and then work on that application as you work throughthis book. Solving real-world problems is the kind of schooling that sticks.</P><P>So it doesn't really matter <I>why</I> you are here. What's important is thatyou <I>are</I> here. I'm glad you are here, and I hope you enjoy your Delphi experience.Relax, put your feet up, and have fun learning how to use Delphi. I know I did.</P><H1>About the Author</H1><P><B>KENT REISDORPH</B> is a senior software engineer at TurboPower Software Co.He also has his own consulting business.

I couldn't imagine dedicatingit to anyone else. Thank you as always, Jen, for keeping everything going while I'moff in my own world.</I></P><P><I></I><H1>Acknowledgments</H1><P>This part of the book comes fairly easily for me. It's easy to remember thosepeople who were instrumental in making a project like this come to completion. FirstI want to thank Brian Gill for his hard work on this project. I did my best to rattleBrian on one or more occasions, but he never wavered (not that I could see anyway!).I also want to thank Kezia Endsley for her work on this book. Kezia did a tremendousjob as development editor. I'm certain that I have benefited from working with her.Other people at Macmillan Publishing I want to thank are Dana Lesh and Heather Urschel.</P><P>There are several people at INPRISE Corporation (formerly Borland International)whom I want to thank. Although I didn't have much direct contact with Nan Borresonon this project, I know she was there behind the scenes doing her usual excellentwork. I want to thank my tech editors, Bill Fisher and Ellie Peters. They both dida good job keeping me straight. I can't mention Ellie without adding that I'm gladto have Ellie as a friend as well as a tech editor. Also thanks to Steve Teixeira,Steve Trefethen, and Ryder Rishel who were quick to answer specific questions I hadduring this project.</P><P>Last but in no way least, I want to thank my wife, Jennifer. This is the thirdsuch project I have undertaken, and Jennifer has always been way, way beyond supportive.She has grown far too accustomed to seeing me "head down and headphones on."One of these days I'll make it up to her. I promise.</P><P><H1>Tell Us What You Think!</H1><P>As the reader of this book, <I>you</I> are our most important critic and commentator.We value your opinion and want to know what we're doing right, what we could do better,what areas you'd like to see us publish in, and any other words of wisdom you'rewilling to pass our way.</P><P>As the executive editor for the Programming team at Macmillan Computer Publishing,I welcome your comments.
