Using other written functions in a unit

[Wardlow]

I created a unit to store functions. However within the unit where I create the fucntion. I would like to use other functions in other units, to help create my function. I tried to write ...

Code: Select all


Uses
// wherever my function is located


However, it doesn't work
Suggestions?

In the uses clause, you must include only the unit names. However, the location of referenced units should be in Delphi's search path. Go to Delphi's options and include path to your units there.

Kambiz,

Thank you for your reply. StrUtils is the location where the function I need is. My function works in the main program if I write "uses strUtils" So in the unit I am creating I write...

Code: Select all


uses
  StrUtils;

unit TextFunctions;

interface

// functions


.. so are you saying I should go to options and tell it to look for "StrUtils"??
... however I am getting an error

Seems the problem is something else.

The uses clause must be after interface keyword.
