Generating MS debug info (.dbg) from Borland map files

This comes up ever so often sometimes more often than people asking about why rounding is so funny in Delphi and C++Builder. (It uses banker's rounding check the help)

People want to create MS debug info so as to use MS debuggers and Dr Watson with Borland generated applications. Generating codeview debug info is possible and documented (Matt Pietrek, wrote and article 'bout doing this on the MSDN) it was on one of my todo lists to do someday for Borland map files, but...

At any rate this chap has done it: http://www.wischik.com/lu/programmer/ and go down to "Debugging aids"
