Hi Guys,

Delphi actually gives an error on loading the form, something like
'TBlah not defined in TThisForm.pas' with a dialog offering yes, no,
cancel (I think). Can something like this be done ? The user needs to
know that the form and the pas are out of date, irrespective of .pp .pas
issues.

Cheers
DC
