Someone out there must have run into and solved this problem ... I have five units that used to be part of my project ... so I deleted the lines in the DPR file that referred to them. I deleted the files from disk. The compiler complained that it needed those files What for, I don't know ...
So I restored them from backups ... did "add to project" ... compiled without problem ... did "remove from project" and deleted the files again ... and it compiled just fine. Success (I thought). Then, a few hours later, the Delphi 7 compiler got lonely for those five units again, and it keeps complaining about "file not found". Even though the DPR file does not reference these files. Nor do they appear in the "remove from project" list. Nor in any of the ascii files in my project directory. The "file not found" error points to the end of the Uses statement in the DPR file -- even though the files in question do not appear there. The forms that used to be in four of them now appear in one unit that is part of the project; the fifth one does not appear with its old name. How do I ever get rid of the need for these files?
