G'day HowardPC,
Thanks for the instructions, which made complete sense.
However, I am still in trouble. The dialog box that shows the package tree
has the cursor in an edit box as if waiting for something like a file name.
clicking compile does something but no confirmation message is returned.
Clicking on use and following the prompts to rebuild Lazarus results in a file
dialog box. What is supposed to go in there? I pointed it to where Lazarus
resides - is this correct?
Anyway, something appears to happen (but no prompts to say what). Closing
and restarting the "new" Lazarus exe results in the file dialog box again, but
still no prompts to say what it is looking for, so I directed it to where it resides
(again).
The package group does not appear on the tool bar, so I am obviously still doing
something wrong
Sorry to be such a pain, but the help file was no help at all.
Cheers & thanks for your kindly support,
DG
