Getting Started :
----------------

UNZIP the archive to a directory temporally.
Create a directory to hold this component and any others that you will 
install in the future. (eg: C:\DELPHI\COMPONEN) It is easier to put new 
components in a separate directory since you can update them easily and 
if there is a new release of DELPHI it will not effect 
your component directory.

Installation of the HLP and KWF files:
-------------------------------------

·Exit DELPHI is you are running it, as you can not install the KWF file 
 while delphi is running.

·Move or copy help file (e.g.: DBIMPORT.HLP) to your Delphi Bin directory 
 (suggest C:\DELPHI\BIN), it only really needs to be somewhere on the path, 
 but the DELPHI bin directory is a good place.

·Delphi has a program to add our help index to Delphis help index. 
 What this does is allow you to search for both delphi commands and the 
 commands and properties of the component you want to install. 
 This program is called HELPINST and is found in the DELPHI\HELP sub 
 directory. Copy the keyword file (DBIMPORT.KWF) to the delphi help directory.   

·Change the current directory to the Delphi Help directory 
 (e.g.: CD C:\DELPHI\HELP)

·Run the HELPINST program and load the DELPHI.HDX file from the DELPHI\BIN 
 directory.

·Add the .KWF file (e.g.: DBIMPORT.KWF) to the list of indexs.

·Save the new index file and then exit the HelpInst program.

Installation of the DCU, DCR, FRM, AND TXT  files:
-------------------------------------------------

We next must add the component to the Delphi VCL Library 
Copy the DCU, DCR, FRM, and TXT files to the directory that you made for 
the components. (e.g.:  C:\DELPHI\COMPONEN)

Load delphi and selected the Options menu Item, and then selected the 
Install Components option. 

·Add the directory where you have installed the components to the search 
 path directory. All components that get installed must be in this search 
 path. 

·Click the add button and then the browse button to navigate to the 
 directory where you copied the .DCU file (e.g.: C:\DELPHI\COMPONEN) 

·Select the List Files Of Type and select Unit File *.DCU, you should then 
 see the DCU file that you copied to the directory. Select the file 
 DBIMPORT.DCU and clic OK, you will be returned to the Install Components 
 dialog box.

·Click on the OK button and the VCL library will be re-built. 

·You will notice on your VCL Palette bar in DELPHI that there is now a 
 new tab called DB DIALOGS, in side here will be an icon to represent the 
 component you just installed.

- load the test.dpr project to test your component. enjoy!
