title: Can you remove a published property from a delphi component and not cause errors on the forms where the component is used?
body: <p>I have a component that was developed by my company, and would like to remove one of the published properties that is no longer needed and clashes with the way the component works now.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to remove the property and not cause property not found errors at runtime or design time when forms that use the component are loaded?
  i.e. Is there a way to make Delphi silently drop a component property?</p>
