Help needed with Component creation please.

I successfully created a duplicate component of a component in the Delphi VCL - except that mine has another name.

The idea being that I could then introduce my own Published properties to my component. As I have done before with other components.

But as I was unhappy with the folder in which I had created it I deleted everything and tried to recreate this basic component in the preferred folder.

But now I hit the following exception at .rtl below if I try to compile and install it.

"Required package 'rtl' not found."

requires
rtl,
dbrtl,
ibxpress,
vcl;

Now no matter what I do (I have started from scratch several times) I keep running into this exception which I have no control over.

Can someone please tell me how rtl, dbrtl, ibxpress and vcl even get to be in the code? What do I do to get around the problem?

Thanks in advance.
 
Case solved and closed.

When creating one's package one must include dcluser.dbk
which can be found in c:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi6\Lib

Isn't that lovely ? LOL
