But, the lack of database VCL support mean most third-party database components cannot be installed and you will miss some of the most important Delphi RAD features (the database support and data-aware controls). Getting Delphi 7 Personal Edition is easy, free and will allow you to explore the Delphi programming experience. And keep in mind that no database VCL code is included with the Personal Edition. Of course, read the license.txt file because it has a few restrictions. If you are still lost, look for a page like this:Īfter installing you can invoke the Registration Wizard to register your Delphi. Update: as of today (2006/VIII/05) the Borland’s Download area where you can get the activation code is at. Then visit the download area and there you will a link to create an activation code for your Delphi 7 Personal Edition. To activate your installation of Delphi 7 Personal edition, just visit the Borland website and create an account.

The size is around 54 MB compressed and 148 uncompressed. Delphi 2005 Personal Edition has only been offered through some magazines in Europe, but Delphi 7 can be downloaded from the Borland website, even though they no longer advertise it. Borland has previously offered a downloadable version of their Delphi IDE called the “Personal edition”.
