Thanks all for your help - found the .ppu and .o at last - I note than inifiles itself needs some other stupid unit! ! I think you'll agree it is all more than somewhat compllcated tho' - can't see why registry unit is part of fcl tho - surely it is a simple routine for reading the registry - not rocket science- just a windows utility so should be eg in \rtl\ or objpas or something like that so one can easily find it and compile it with whatever version of fpc w/o hassle and fighting with n dependencies which don't add any real value. <div>

Thanks - just want a simple unit, I'm not using lazarus.<br>
<br>
If I go to this directory and try to compile registry with v2.6.2,<br>
win32, it then uses inifiles so that's needed and not part of the fpc<br>
2.6.2 distribution afaik. Where can I find that please?<br>

<br></div>
If you download a 2.6.2 release and install it everything will already be in please. You just need to use the registry unit.<br>
<br>
Nevertheless the unit IniFiles is located in $fpcdir/packages/fcl-base/src<br>
<br>
