You had the package in one directory, and the driver in another. When you compiled the driver, you were in the directory containing it, but you did not tell the compiler what directories to look in for other files (packages) on which it depended. So when you moved the package code in with the driver code and compiled it, the compiler found the package in the same directory and all was well. Look at your compiler's documentation regarding maintaining and compiling software in different directories. (If you're using GNAT, look at the -I compiler switch.) Marc A.
