OK, yes, you do get a read and a stat. I had extraneous .ppu and .o files
lying around.

I'm still having problems, in that the structures set up by the lrs 
file are not happening. Regardless of whether the { $I ...} statement
is there or not, all that happens is that the default Form1, unlabelled,
is set up, without any of the underlying structure. There's no caption,
you cannot click and get anything to happen.

Is there a way of finding out just what the .lrs file has setup ?

Two (possibly related) questions :

- If the files are named differently (case, using .PAS rather than .pp)
  in the .lrs file, will this cause problems ? Would it be detected ?

- Can you have a panel within the root (TForm1 / Form1) Form ? I have 
  problems getting this to work, and I know the application wants to
  set this up.

Thanks,
