Hi,
I have
a problem inheriting (from the repository) a form that uses a commercial
component. Whenever I run a project with this form I get the
message:
[Error] RLINK32: Error opening file "C:\Program
Files\Borland\Delphi5\Projects\Unit3.DFM"...or whatever unit the Ancestor is
stored in.
I've rebult the form, re-added the component to the repository
etc etc. The problem only occurs when I inherit - I can use the component
otherwise. After I get the message, I lose all the inherited attributes of the
component. I cannot revert to inherited in the inherited form at all ... its as
if the component does not know how to persist its
state.
The
component is a TMS HTMLStatusbar, I use Delphi 5 Pro. I do not have the source
for the component (nor will I get it if I can't sort this out). While I wait for
the vendor to suggest a fix I thought someone in this group might have some
ideas as to what might be wrong. I've checked my project paths etc, but am a bit
green ... so any suggestion, however basic, is worth a
crack.
In
anticipation - thanks.
