Note:
to use an EB project in IWB 1.8 you have to change the project file extention from .ebp to .iwp.
that's because the Open project dialog only allows you to select *iwp files.

but that is ALL you have to change to compile an EB project in IWB 1.8.

IWB 1.8 will load all the *.eba files for the project and the projext will compile just fine.
you also can add additional *.eba files to the project if you desire as well as *.iwb files.

Really makes it nice when converting over.

This is not really true, if you known the following trick:
Set focus to the file name editbox, select all (if something is there) and type*.ebpthen press Enter key. From this point, the dialog will display only ebp files.

This trick I'm using to add .res files to a project. Menu->project->insert library->type unquoted "*.res"->press enter->browse and select the res file.
