While writing a new VCL.Net component I had to add DB to the uses list 
of one of the modules.  When I tried to compile the component it told me 
that Borland.Vcl.DB had been implicitly imported into the package and 
refused to link.  I had a devil of a time trying to figure out which DLL 
had to be added to the Requires folder of my project.  I finally added a 
TDataSource to a form in a test project and compiled it to find out what 
got included.  Surely there must be an easier way to find out which DLLs 
contain which modules??????

Hi Stephen,

I guess it at least be listed in the help. I use reflector

http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet/

and have third party assemblies referenced. You can then use the search
feature with a type

Cheers,
John

You would think so wouldn't you, but it isn't.
