Felix,

Below is an article on installing the TeeChart Packages manually. All this
text is also available in the RBuilder help under ReportBuilder Reference |
TeeChart | Delphi 5.

--------------------------------------------------------
To manually install TeeChart 6.0 Support for Delphi 5:
--------------------------------------------------------
1. Copy: ppChReg.dcu, ppChrt.dcu, ppChrtDP.dcu, ppChrtDPEd.dcu

from: ..\RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600

to: ..\RBuilder\Lib


2. Copy: dclRBC75.dcp, rbTC75.dcp, rbTDBC75.dcp

from: ..\RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600

to: ..\RBuilder\Lib


3. Copy: dclRBC75.bpl

from: ..\RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600

to: ..\RBuilder\Lib


4. Copy: rbTC75.bpl, rbTDBC75.bpl

from: ..\RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600

to: ..\Windows\System (or Windows\System32 for NT).


5. If you have the registered version of ReportBuilder, then update the
source directory by copying the following files:

Copy: ppChReg.pas, ppChrt.pas, ppChrtDP.pas, ppChrtDPEd.pas

from: ..\RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600

to: ..\RBuilder\Source


6. Access the Component | Install Packages menu option from within Delphi
and install the dclRBC75.dpl from the ..\RBuilder\Lib directory.

Note: If you are unable to install the package, then you need to recompile
the package by following the instructions below.

----------------------------------------------------
Compiling the ReportBuilder TeeChart 6 Packages
----------------------------------------------------
1. Access the Delphi Environment Options dialog by selecting Tools |
Environment Options from the Delphi menu.
2. Select the Library tab.
3. Set the BPL and DCP directories to the ReportBuilder Tee600 directory. If
you have installed ReportBuilder into the default directory, you can set
these directories to:
$(DELPHI)\RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600
Otherwise you will need to specify the full path into the
..RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600 directory. Once you have set these directories,
close the dialog.

4. Select File | Open from the Delphi menu. Locate the 'Files of type'
drop-down list near the bottom of the dialog. Select the 'Delphi package
(*.dpk)' item in the list. Now only package files will be displayed.
5. Navigate to the ..\RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600 directory.
6. Open the rbTC75.dpk package and click the compile button.
7. Open the rbTDBC75.dpk package and click the compile button.
8. Open the dclRBC75.dpk package and click the compile button.
9. Launch the Windows Explorer and examine the files in the
..RBuilder\TeeChart\Tee600 directory. Sort the files by type. All of the
.dcu, .dcp, and .bpl files should be stamped with the current date and time.
If this is not the case, then the files have not been regenerated, or your
BPL or DCP directory setting is not correct and the files have been
generated into some other directory.

10. Access the Delphi Environment Options dialog and clear the BPL and DCP
directory settings.
11. Follow the installation instructions given above to install your newly
generated TeeChart packages.

I did that you said, but in the packages I get Rbuilder for Teechart 5.02.
could be an error of the label?

Felix,

Thanks for reporting this. It has been fixed for the next release. If you
view the description of the dclRBC75.dpl package, you will see that it says
"ReportBuilder TeeChart 5.02 Components". This is just a naming error, the
package should work just fine but if you would like to see the correct
package name, you may change the description to say "ReportBuilder TeeChart
6.0 Components" and then rebuild the packages.
