    Hello All,

    I have just purchased AlphaControls. I am now trying to install it into Delphi 6. When I compile runtime package and then install design package. I get the error message “The application has failed to start because actd6.bpl not found, reinstalling it may fix the problem”

    I have setup the environment variable for the folder where I have copied the files and also added the path to library section from options in Delphi.

    Please help me in this regard.

    Thanks

    Manoj Shinde

    Install for Delphi :

    1. Start by unpacking the acnt*.zip files into a folder of your own choice.
    2. This directory must be registered in system search path. And add, (if need)
    AlphaControls directory in Delphi (Tools->Environment Options->Library->Library
    Path).
    3. Use “FileOpen…” menu item of Delphi IDE to open the AlphaControls
    run-time package acntX_r.dpk (x – version of Delphi). In the “Package…”
    window click “Compile” button to compile run-time library.
    4. Use “FileOpen…” menu item of Delphi IDE to open the AlphaControls
    design-time package acntX.dpk. In the “Package…” window click “Install”
    button to install the library.
    5. DB-aware components users can install AlphaDB pack by copying AlphaDB files
    to AlphaControls directory and AlphaDB.dpk file installing.}

    you need first to compile the _r package for D6 and then compile and Install the package without _r!
    Dont forget to add the path into the seach path (Tools->Environment Options->Library->Library
    Path)

    Hello,

    It is working now. I have copied *.bpl from projects directory into the alphacontrols directory and it worked fine.

    Thanks a lot
