Using Delphi 2 component in Delphi5

[Fleabit]

I have a third party component designed for Delphi 2 with no source code available. Is there a way to get this component to work in Delphi 5?

I wouldn't try it, Delphi 1 and 2 were designed for the operating systems at that time; Windows 3.0 and Windows 3.11

It is cheaper to upgrade the components or make them yourself.

BTW what type of components are we talking about?

It's a telephony component

What are you intending to use it for? Once we've established that then we could probably recommend an equivalent component available in Delphi 5.

Magenta has a shareware called ComCap to capture data through the serial port. it is used to connect to PABX systems. Yes it was written in Delphi 2, but maybe there is an update. A friend used it to couple a PABX to access

This is the link I found in the readme file:
