Can't add new include path

Hello,

When I try to add a new include path from: (Right Click on the Project
Name in the Project window) -> Options -> Directories/Conditionals (Tab
Page) -> Include Path -> (...), it shows the list of current include
paths which I can navigate using the blue up and down arrows, but the
Add and Delete buttons are grayed out. Why is this?

Peter.

Actually, the blue arrows change the order of the paths.

You have to type a new path in the edit box below the list of paths before
the Add button will be enabled. You have to select a path before the Delete
button is enabled.

Kent,

Thanks! BTW, your chapter 20 on VCL component writing was a godsend. However,
I would really like to see an entire book on VCL component writing, and how to
make them cross-compatible with ActiveX technology (OCX's and the like).

How 'bout it? :)

Peter.

I rearranged it a bit for this book. I think it's better now than it was in
the first book. :)

There are several good ones out there except... they're written for Delphi.
Most of the same concepts apply, of course, but you won't be able to use the
code without converting it to C++. One of the best for serious component
development is Danny Thorpe's "Delphi Component Design." Danny is one of the
Borland R&D engineers.

You probably won't see anything like that. Too obscure.
