Ok.  I've been beta testing some Delphi components in BCB3
for Brad Stowers.  He says that D3 adds the equivalent of
#pragma resource "*.dcr" (which is {$R *.dcr}) to the package
source file.  If it is also in the component source, it generates
duplicate resource errors.

He also says that BCB1 automatically picked up the *.dcr file
when installing the component.

So what gives?  Can anyone confirm D3 or BCB1's behavior?

Thanks,
