There are missing files when trying to compile under
Delphi 5 and probably C++ Builder 5 too.

    I had a hell of a time getting it to build under C++Builder 5,
    but after several hours of hacking I was able to do so. The
    library was made for Delphi 6 and is missing some $IFDEFs for
    Delphi 5. (Borland moved some stuff around and added new
    units for D6.) To get it working under D5, remove FmtBCD,
    RTLConsts, and Variants from the "uses" in Colorado.pas and
    remove Variants from the "uses" in Cfields.pas. (I also had to
    comment out some code in
    TRequiredStringProperty.PropDrawName; it was a hack but I
    just wanted to get it built!) I don't have D5 but that should
    be enough to get it compiled. For BCB5 I had to build
    everything using a batch file and the command line tools.

    I got it to build under BCB5 Enterprise IDE.
    I deleted Variants in the uses clause and several other types.
    DrawPropName had to be renamed to PropDrawName.
    Design time package needed the lib dsnide50 not designide.
    I got plenty of Warnings that dispinterface is not a supported
    language feature, but it works nevertheless.
