Invalid Variant Type when opening existing projects

created 14 years ago

I updated to 6.57 and see this error message when I try to open an existing project. I can create a new project and run it without errors (just with a cxGrid which has no columns).
I also see E2161 Error: RLINK32: Error opening file myform.dfm when I compile the project

    Hello Michael,
    Thank you for your message. I am afraid I cannot give you a precise answer about why this happens without examining a sample project. If it is possible, please try to create it and attach it to your next message. We will examine it and do our best to find a solution.
    Best Regards,
    Paulo

      Solved: the main form contained a custom component which is based on TcxButtonEdit and its package was not rebuilt yet. I found it when I tried to prepare a reproducible example form.
