Install Microsoft Office XP Sample Automation Server Wrapper Components

Hello,
After installing Delphi 2007 Win32 I installed package "Microsoft Office XP Sample Automation Server Wrapper Components" by placing a checkmark.
I didn't place a check in front of "Microsoft Office 2000 Sample Automation Server Wrapper Components".

I tried removing both packages from the list and install only dcl0ffice100.bpl, but each time after I restart the IDE they are both in the list and are both unchecked.

Any solution for this?

Yes, those libraries act differently. Don't know why.
But I have the same behavior you describe with Delphi XE. I found that annoying to think of checking one before loading a project that needs it (because even the project-based package list does not retain these packages), but since I don't use that in many projects, I didn't tried to look for a solution.
Maybe someone else found one ? I'll try to dig, and I'm listening as well

Hi,

Perfect, thank you.
For me the Disabled Packages were found in:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\BDS\5.0\Disabled Packages]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Borland\BDS\5.0\Disabled Packages]

In both keys I removed: $(BDS)\bin\dclofficexp100.bpl
Now it works again.

Hi,
I have the same issue, but the link in

is broken, if you remember the procedure, i hope that you post this, thanks
Basically you enter the Windows registry with f.e. Regedit.exe
Here you search for the two keys.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\BDS\5.0\Disabled Packages]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Borland\BDS\5.0\Disabled Packages]
In both keys I removed: $(BDS)\bin\dclofficexp100.bpl

If you have no experience with editing the registry, then I suggest you first make a full backup of your computer.
Hope this helps.
