This one bites me every time I install some third-party demo which has a dependency on a package I don't normally install.
So, let's see if I can get an easy solution, and remember it. Let's say I know I need the TXMLDocument component, which I don't have installed. From the help, I can quickly find it is in the XMLDoc unit. BUT -- is there some *easy* way to tell what furschinluggin' BPL I need to install to make that unit and its components available? Hard ways, I've found, such as grepping for the unit name in the BPLs -- but in this case, it's referenced in a whole bunch, so it doesn't help. I find this whole "it depends on it but you can't find it" issue one of the biggest timewasters when learning new areas of Delphi. So there's probably an easy solution I haven't encountered in the past decade. cheers, peter _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list [email protected] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi
