Question ID: 709619
I am looking for an automated tool or script that will take a Borland
C++ project and convert it into a Visual Studio .NET project.  A full
conversion is
not necessary, rather a starting point for manual intervention.

Thanks -

Todd

trying to use the export makefile function from Borland C++ Builder
and open the makefile in Visual Studio.

However, most Borland code rely on the Borland compiler or libs such
as VCL which does not exists in Visual Studio, so the best you can get
in this case is a make project full of custom build rules.

Another suggestion is to desgin a language-independent interface such
as DLL, COM or .Net assembly for your Borland code and use it in a
Visual Studio project.
