How can I tell what version of Delphi was used to create a project

Question

If I have complete source code to a delphi project, how can I tell what version (i.e. Delphi 5, Delphi 7, Delphi 2010 etc) was used to create it, without opening it in Delphi?

I have a number of projects dating back to Delphi 6 era that I would like to categorise. However I don't want to have to open each one in various versions of Delphi to figure out what version to use.

Just in case somebody stumbles on this question, here is one with some more extensive answers: http://stackoverflow.com/q/9757886/49925 and the Delphi Wiki page based on these answers: http://delphi.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_find_out_which_Delphi_version_was_used_to_create_a_project%3F — dummzeuch, Jul 13 '16 at 19:34

Indeed, and trying to see if Shift+Tab or sth. like that worked, I accidentally posted a stupid answer. – Sertac Akyuz Dec 09 '10 at 02:25
