Jason,

I don't know anyone sane who knows the integer equivalent of cursor
constants. ;-)

It looks like the problem is that you can't include the unit Controls
(which is contained in the VCL base package) in IB_SessionProps, and as
a consequence in the package IBO40CRT that contains that unit.

What is strange is that IBO40CRT *already* calls the VCL package in,
with the unit Controls, and as such changing smallint to TCursor
anywhere in the IB_SessionProps unit and recompiling causes no
additional packages required.

This is what happens under Delphi 6; perhaps thigs are different with
previous supported versions, or there must be something else I'm not
getting.
Ciao
