Problem with a component

[proguru]

I try to use a component derived from TRichedit. I test it in a project and works. The next step is to install it. The install process also works (does not give any errors). When i open a new project and rty to drop the component in the form,the error appears "Control has no parent window"

I try to overrides the function CreateWnd but does not work either. Can you help me please?

Thanks.

In the component's constructior, are you setting the component's Parent? Look up TWinControl:arent and TWinControl::Owner in BCB help.
If you were trying to create the component at runtime, you must set it's Parent property

TRichEdit *newRichEdit = new TRichEdit(Form1);
newRichEdit->Parent = Form1;
// Set other properties
.
.
.

In the end it will probably be the simplest, most obvious thing that I was doing wrong...
