I have .lazarus v 1.0.14 in my home directory. Uninstalled Lazarus
1.0.14 and install v 1.2, during startup, it uses that directory for
environmental setup and now generates an error for locating FPC. My
mistake of saying 'location', it still find the directory but failed to
recognize that it was the correct directory, that prompted me to move
.lazarus. I did not take a screenshot of the error, so I cannot recall
of the exact wording, but I think anyone can reproduce the error
generated by:
1. Install Lazarus 1.0.14(fpc/fpcsrc).
2. Uninstall only lazarus 1.0.14
3. Install 1.2 version
4. Run Lazarus and wait for the prompt and error at fpc tab during startup.

Thank you.. I see. I am thinking that the (IDE) to get recompiled in
order to support win32 objects.

I see.  Try to target win32 and now it works. Thank you for your help...
