With OA, you first create a project (using "File/New Project" as SteveD said), then add files to it using the "Project/Files/Add..." option. If you are creating a brand new file, use the "File/New File" option to create the file. Once you're to the point where you want to compile it, you must first save it ("File/Save"), then add it to your project ("Project/Files/Add..."), and then you can compile it. I hope this makes more since. Frank PS. Steve, OA SE's are just like OA Professionals, but with limits on the number of packages, or units per library, etc., and minus some additional packages and bindings. The IDE and GUI Builder work exactly the same. -----Original Message----- From: Axeplyr [mailto:john.fluetter@aixtra.de] Sent: Saturday, November 03, 2001 12:52 PM To: comp.lang.ada@ada.eu.org Subject: Re: ObjectAda 7.1 Special Edition - how do I use my own packages? Ok, so if I type in a package spec and body that he has in the text, I need to create a project that uses them, then compile, build and execute the entire thing? I don't need to precompile them? The book indicates that you must compile the specification file, then the body file before you can use them. I'll give it a try and get back - thanks for the help! John
