Hi I have been coding and so far, there was no problem developing and compiling in Delphi 2007 in WinXP until Delphi XE7 in Win7.

I am not sure why it happened.

The line that the errors pointed to 

....
if(tS<>'') then
begin
  Result:=StrToFloat(StringReplace(String(tS),'.',DecimalSeparator,[]));
  Invalid:=False;
end;
....

Errors:

1) [dcc32 Error] UtilNumString.pas(321): E2003 Undeclared identifier:     'DecimalSeparator'
2) [dcc32 Error] UtilNumString.pas(321): E2250 There is no overloaded version     of 'StringReplace' that can be called with these arguments

Please kin addvise. Thanks

The old global variables for format settings have been removed. You can either use the FormatSettings global variable :

Result:=StrToFloat(StringReplace(String(tS),'.',FormatSettings.DecimalSeparator,[]));

Or, alternatively (ideally...), you can create a local TFormatSettings and use that instead.

var
  fs : TFormatSettings;
begin
   fs := TFormatSettings.Create();
   Result:=StrToFloat(StringReplace(String(tS),'.',fs.DecimalSeparator,[]));
end;
