Help with RotatedText (again)

edited March 2002 in General
It started again....
When I start Delphi 6 is get the same message as before....
I can upload the package from the component page and reload and it load
fine, but when I start D6 again, it says that it cannot load the package.

See the previous message:

I'm are switching a project from D5 to D6. On a new machine (WinXP) I
loaded D6. D5 has never been installed in this machine.
I have all of the Report Builder components installed on the new machine.
I downloaded the Rotated Text from the Friends part of the Digital-Metaphors
web site.
I opened the BuilderControlsPackage and it compiled fine.
I then opened the BuilderControlsPackage Design time and it compiled fine,
but when I click the INSTALL button, I get an error message that says "Can't
load package 'VCL50'. It contains units 'AppEvents,' which is also
contained in VCL60." I can't find anywhere the reference to the Delphi
VCL50 package.

Any suggestions?

P.S. Would it be possible to include this component authomatically with
Report Builder?

Thanks,

    It sounds like your version of BuilderControls is for D5. I didn't have
    BuilderControls installed on my current machine, so I downloaded it
    http://www.digital-metaphors.com/rcl/bldctls.zip I compiled the runtime
    package, design time package, and installed the design time package witout
    any errors. I closed down Delphi 6 and reopened it and the package loaded
    without any problems. Try downloading the latest (see above link) and try it
    again. Make sure to completely uninstall the previous version and that
    Delphi has it removed from its packages list so that it can launch without
    errors.

    Thanks Jim,
    I just remembered that this system has a D5 application with the VCL50
    installed on it. And I think that the package for BuilderControls is the
    same name for both versions. I'll rename the package for D6 and try it.

    Is it possible to automatically include the BuilderControls in reportBuilder
    so this won't be an issue for next time?

    Thanks again,
    Paul Klomp

    Thanks,
