That will not work, and it should not.

unita2 can be anywhere.

The compiler should not assume that the one in the Documents directory is the one you want.

I just checked: I have about 150 copies of frmmain.pp on my harddisk.

Unless I tell the compiler exactly which one it needs to use (using frmmain in 'XYZ/frmmain.pp'), 
it should not make assumptions.

so in your case:

program p;

uses
    unita2 in 'Documents/unita2.pp',
    unita in 'Documents/unita.pp';

begin
end.

Should (and does) work.
