I tried to install graphics32-1-8-1, but did not succeed, I somehow misunderstood the instructions. I stead I got all Delphi units red underlined, all units missing, when I tried to load an old project with which I was just working. What should I do?

It sounds like your library path (where to look for compiled units) has been changed. You can find your library path under tools -> options ->Environment options -> delphi options -> Library win32. This library path should include a reference to the standard libraries and your own components. Mine looks something like C:\Program Files\Borland\BDS\4.0\lib; C:\Program Files\Borland\BDS\4.0\Imports; C:\Program Files\Borland\BDS\4.0\Lib\Indy10; ....

OK, try this: 1. Start D2006 and go to tools -> Environment Options -> Library -> Library Path. Press the ... button for the 'Directories Ordered List of Library Paths' Dialog 2. Press the ... button for the 'Select folder' dialog and select the folder where your GR32 library is. This should point to the main folder of your GR32 lib, so the folder where the Graphics32.chm file lives. Press the 'Add' Button. 3. Check that your library path now indeed contains your previous paths AND the added library path to your GR32 folder (something like I showed you earlier C:\Program Files\Borland\BDS\4.0\lib; C:\Program Files\Borland\BDS\4.0\Imports; C:\Program Files\Borland\BDS\4.0\Lib\Indy10; .... C:\MyLibs\graphics32-1-8-1; ) 4. Close this dialogs, and go to file -> Open Project in the main menu of D2006. Navigate to your Graphics32-1-8-1 folder, select the Packages folder and open the file GR32_DSGN_D2006. 5. In your project group window (upper right corner of your screen in default setup), you will now see your GR32_DSGN_D2006 project. RightClick on this project and select 'Install' or 'Compile' and 'Install' Hope this helps Willem Asko Korpela wrote: Quote: Thanks for reminding. In fact I gave up.

Thanks for your help. I'm using Turbo and (I think) the installation is slightly different. If there are better ways around this for Turbo, please post. This Graphics32 package looks pretty amazing. In Turbo, it's Tools->Options->Library - Win 32 then add the Folder you installed Graphics32 in. For me it was c:\.......\graphics32-1-8-1. I ended up having to add this reference twice and don't know why, but now it seems to stick. On step 5, Turbo will not allow you to Install. I guess this is where the Turbo version is hobbled. But all is not lost, Install seems to just be the design side of the package. I seem to still be able to use the runtime side. When I tried to Install, it compiled first (I actually compiled a second time to be sure) and that went Ok and put a whole bunch of new .dcu files into the \graphics32-1-8-1 folder. Now (for example) when I: File->Open Project-> \graphics32-1-8-1\Examples\Vcl\General\Rotate_ex-> Rotate_ex.dpr-> Open it tells me "Error Reading Form", "Class TImage32 not found". If I select Cancel I get another Error Message about Class TImage32 but just select Ok and it opens the project without a form. If I select run, it compiles and runs. So the secret to looking at the Examples under Turbo is to Cancel and not Ignore. Cancel seems to create the form using only the underlying code. I lose the design time but.... And the Graphics32 stuff does look pretty amazing and FAST. Brian Back to top Asko Korpela Guest Posted: Tue Oct 17, 2006 2:53 am    Post subject: Re: HELP!!!

Hello Asko, Are you sure you are running the Delphi personality? The error message you get seems to be a C error message. In the windows start menu, I always choose to start->Programs->Borland Developer Studio 2006->Delphi for Microsoft Win32. This loads faster than loading the entire Borland Developer Studio with all its personalities, and this way you are never mistaken which personality you are. (You can create a shortcut to this start-item on the desktop). Second question: open your project and check in Project->Options->Linker whether 'Linker output' is set to 'Generate DCUs'. The examples compile and run here, so it must be some default settings that are incorrect.
