I had a hard drive crash and stupid me haven't made backups for at least a year. I had several projects for which I used Delphi 5 and have lost all the code. Is there any way of getting the code back by un compiling the exe file?

Jump to PostThe compiler reads and translates the code you write. All names etc are dropped so if there is a way to read the compiled code and identify the logic, it would still not have any names or other clues to what was what.

If undaunted, check out this About.com article about decompiling Delphi …
