I have been working with Lazarus for some two months now and developed a couple of small apps using 0.9.23 beta in a Win2K environment. I have been very impressed by Lazarus - previous post.
I am now trying to convert a somewhat larger application from D7 to Lazarus.
1. "Tools/Convert Delphi project to Lazarus project" creates the lpi and lpr files. After that, I am unable to get the different units into the project.
2. "Tools/Convert Delphi unit to Lazarus unit" fails with the following message box:
>>>>>>>>>>>>
The current unit path for the file
"F:\MyProj\mainu.pas" is
";F:\MyProj\"
//please note the extra ';' before the path. Is this a bug?
The path to the LCL units "F:\Lazarus\lcl\units\$(TargetCPU)-$(TargetOS)" is missing.
//Never saw this before. How do I correct it?
Hint for newbies:
Create a Lazarus project and put the file into the project directory.

As a newbie, I like getting a hint - but as a matter of fact, I believe that's exactly what I'm doing.
3. So the questions are:
How can I correct the issues brouhg by the above message?
Is there a documented sequence of steps to get the Delphi units into the Lazarus project?
4. Note: I have read several forum discussions regarding the dfm/lfm issues, but this is not the only issue here - or is it?
