I have a main.pas file.
main.pas:

----------------------------###----------------------------
procedure kocsi_olvas (hogy_mit: char; marka: string; tipus: string);
     var     sor       :string[255];
             i         :byte;

     const   kocsi_file='kocsi.lst';
begin
    blabla
    case hogy_mit of
         'm': begin blabla end;
         't': begin blabla end;
         'r': begin blabla end;
    end;
end;
----------------------------###----------------------------


I have a test.pas file.
test.pas:

----------------------------###----------------------------
..
...
....
.....
var
   Form6: TForm6;

implementation

uses
    main;

{ TForm6 }

{ TForm6 }

{ TForm6 }

procedure TForm6.Form6Show(Sender: TObject);
     var     marka  : string[255];
             tipus  : string[255];
             sor    : string[255];
             i      : integer;

begin
    blabla
    while markak[i]<>'' do
      begin
       blabla
       kocsi_olvas('t',markak[i],'tipus');
       blabla
      end;
end;
----------------------------###----------------------------


And when I build the project, I get this in the messages window:

----------------------------###----------------------------
TOutputFilter: "test.pas(55,12) Error: Identifier not found "kocsi_olvas""
TOutputFilter: "test.pas(55,46) Error: Illegal expression"
TOutputFilter: "test.pas(113) Fatal: There were 2 errors compiling 
module, stopping"
----------------------------###----------------------------



I thought that specifying the 'main' in the uses section is enough for 
calling the procedure. I can read/write the main.pas's variables, but 
can not call the main.pas's 'kocsi_olvas' procedure.

Thanks for the help!

Daniel
