This is true in simple cases, where all units are compiled with the same settings. As soon as you work with several projects or units with special settings like compiler flags, i18n, fpdoc, libs, etc, using packages is recommended. > > As Mattias said, you can also add unit paths in your project's > > compiler options dialog (Project | Compiler options | Paths tab). > > Yes, I have done that, and the project compiles fine.

Which unit A does not find which other unit B? Did you check the File Settings / Unit info paths of A?
