Including DOA in a package

[DTaylor]

Using D5, DOA, Oracle8

I'm starting to write a standard logon screen for our applications. Obviously, it'll use DOA. What I'd like to do is create a package that includes components like the logon dialog and other things. However, when I try to compile the component, I get various different errors - the most common being "can't write to file doa.bpl"

I'm not exactly experienced in D5, so I may be doing things entirely wrong - and there may be a better way to ge what I want. Any advice appreciated.

It may be that you need to compile the Direct Oracle Access package. This will create the doa.dcp file which is probably required by your component.

To do this simply open the doa.dpk file from Delphi's lib directory and compile it.
