Fatal Error: Unit 'dbf' not found

[Tom Krueger]

Hi everybody,

After a bit of fumbling around, I managed to compile and install tDBF under 10.2 Tokyo.

Unfortunately, I get a fatal error upon compiling a very simple test project: "Unit 'dbf' not found".
I already tried to link the path to the downloaded tDBF files within the options, but that didn't help.
Is there another step I should know about?

Being new at Delphi in general, I'd be very happy if somebody could help me out.

Thanks!

How did you install tDBF under 10.2 Tokyo?
I have tried with tDBF 7.01 but not been able to make it work.
