I am using Delphi 2007.  I am trying to create a new external module.  When I click on the ElevateDB External Module template, a Browse for Folder dialog is displayed showing the folder MyDocuments\RAD Studio\Projects.

What am I looking for?  Can someone help me with what I need to do from here?

Thank you

Richard Harding

Not sure if it's the same for D2007, but in D2010 I do the following:

1. Select File - New - Other from the main Delphi window.

2. Select ElevateDB from the tree on the left hand side.

3. Select the external module type you want and click OK.

4. Select the folder where you and to place the new module code.

It will give an warning message about the resource not being present and
then will display the project for you when you confirm the message.

Thanks Terry and Roy,

When I do those steps I get the message "The project cannot be loaded because the required personality Delphi.Personality.12 is not available."

I am using Delphi 2007 (version 11).  Can you explain what this actually means?

Thank you . . .

No, but as a guess there's something in the .bdsproj or .res which is confusing the IDE. Try deleting the .bdsproj file and loading like a normal project from the .dpr.

I'll check this out and make sure that it's fixed - the personality in the
..dproj looks like it isn't set properly.

Usually you can get around this by renaming the dproj file and then opening the project using dpr file with Delphi (delphi will recreate the dproj)
