Hi:
I am using Delphi 2007 on a Windows 8.1 (64-bit) machine.

After installing 217b1edbvcltrialrsdelphi2007, no EDB components are availiable.

What do I need to do to fix this?

Upon checking I found that the ElevateDB Design-Time Package' was not selected (checked).

Got an error. Closed rechecked. Restarted Delphi 2007. Components are there now.

Strange that I had to do this manually and I received an error.

Now about to test to ensure it works.

I was still experiencing problems....

My solution: Uninstall 2.17.

Thereupon I noted that 2.13 still existed and was not deleted in the installation process for 2.17.

Found all directories I could find related to EWB and renamed them.

Reinstalled 2.17.

Components showing again!

PS:
Remember to change 'CharacterSet' value in the TEDBEngine and TEDBSession objects. For example to 'csUnicode' in both.

As a general practice i always suggest to uninstall any old versions -
especially if you came from pre-unified version (i.e. one that had
separate unicode and ansi installs).

EWB should not affect your EDB - unless you meant EDB folders.

I suggest you review the releases notes as there have been some other
changes also between 2.13 and 2.17.

Final note i'm sure you're aware of but trial has run-time packages only
