While I was using D2007 I've really got used to Project > Project Page Options feature to keep and view some free-form project notes, external references (these almost never being comfortably viewable in built-in HTML designer) etc. Now I have Delphi XE and Project Page Options is missing from Project menu, moreover, projpageide150.bpl mentioned in the documentation is not present in bin directory. How do i fix it? I'm really finding ability to view (not edit!) HTML documents in the IDE a very convenient feature.

2I have seen several people mention the same problem since D2010, but no solution. Makes me wonder if the feature was removed, such as when support for Delphi.NET was dropped from the IDE. – Remy Lebeau Nov 09 '11 at 04:38

IIUC I should have this menu item in my D2007 but I can't find it. There's no projpageide*.bpl to be found either. Is this a separate install or did I miss something else? – Uli Gerhardt Nov 09 '11 at 09:18

@Ulrich Gerhardt, good question. All I know - it is included and installed by default (might depend on RAD Studio edition, tho). Check if you have latest updates roll-up. Also, I think Welcome page package is required dependency for it. – OnTheFly Nov 09 '11 at 09:38

I'm on "December 2007 Update" and have the Welcome Page activated. Do you have a `projpageide100.bpl` in `C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeGear\RAD Studio\5.0\bin`? I don't. – Uli Gerhardt Nov 09 '11 at 10:04

@ulrich user is talking about XE – David Heffernan Nov 09 '11 at 11:01

@David: I know. I just wanted to see (in my D2007 - we haven't upgraded yet) what this question is about and noticed I couldn't. :-( – Uli Gerhardt Nov 09 '11 at 11:14

@Ulrich Gerhardt, my exact version # is `11.0.2902.10471`, installed from DVD (as opposed to cumulatively updated from early release) onto clean system (might be related too, as I remember installer examines target system for licensing purposes) – OnTheFly Nov 09 '11 at 22:45

@David Heffernan, Ulrich's phenomenon implies what there might be an installer bug which persists since migration to InstallAway - http://groups.google.com/group/borland.public.install.delphi/browse_thread/thread/006be2f4abc2ab89 - search this newsgroup for **sorry**, there are tons of such reports – OnTheFly Nov 09 '11 at 22:52

It looks like it was dropped but has been re-instated. In my XE2 installation the projpageide160.bpl file is there, as is the Project | Project Page options menu. Neither are present in my D2010 installation.

Looks more like *broken but fixed* for me, as it still present in product documentation (not an on-line one). But what about XE version? I hadn't a chance to check 2010 for that. – OnTheFly Nov 09 '11 at 22:38

You've got XE and say it's not there. I've got XE2 and it is there. – David Heffernan Nov 10 '11 at 05:05
