This is a problem indeed. I don't know why, but sometimes there's this kind of trouble when installing zeos when multiple compilers are available on the machine.

You may also have this issue when there's a zeoslib version available on your machine, which does not have a separate ComponentDesign package yet. (eg. 6.5.1, oor an installed Delphi 5 version)

Just to make sure : there's no zeoslib available in the Delphi 2007 version you use? Otherwise you must first uninstall and remove the old bpl's.

When you try again, make sure you use the original packages, because the dialog above removed the necessary units to install the components.

On Windows there's a small little tool called the Windows explorer... And of course, there's the Find utility :lol:

Just look for Z*.bpl (and eventually Z*.<whatever extensions Delphi makes when installing). Usually you can also remove the other Z* files in the same dir as the bpl's.

Select Delphi IDE Menu: Component - Install Packages.
Remove "Zeos Database Components".

Yes, but you need to delete all source, and bpl's from any directory to be able to re-install. But before you do, if it installes well, look into the components options. Is Zeos mentioned there? If it is, does it's checkbox being checked? If not then check it and all will be well.
