BCB4 looking for wrong BPI/LIB directory

Hi,

Just went to BCB4 and have had many problems, delays and frustrations!!!

Project is now compiling, but after modifiying the interface in a package I
am using, I can't recompile it.  Well, it recompiles, but it won't produce
a new lib file or a new bpi file, so I get linker errors when I try to
recompile the project that uses the package.

In project options (or package options) under Directories/Conditionals, the
BPI/LIB Directory keeps getting set to the extension of
$(BCB)\Projects;$(BCB)\Projects\Lib

ie the two directory paths are concatenated, and it tries to use them as a
single path.  I have tried many times many combinations of different
options.  When I delete the directory, or reset it, it keeps getting
overwritten back to this bogus directory path.  I have also tried deleting
and setting the Environment options BPI/LIB Directory, but whatever I do
with either of these settings has no affect on the outcome, which is that
CBC4 resets the directory to the double path (with a semicolon separator)
and tries to create a file in it.

Anyone else experienced this?

Debbie
