Thanks Helen.

I made the adjustment and here is the new source in the dpr file. I
still get an error:

'Access violation at address 004A96B4 in module 'TestProj2.exe'. Read
of address 00000054'. Process TestProj2.exe (3372)



program TestProj2;

uses
Forms,
MainForm in 'MainForm.pas' {Form2},
dm02 in 'dm02.pas' {DataModule3: TDataModule};

{$R *.res}

begin
Application.Initialize;
Application.CreateForm(TDataModule3, DataModule3);
Application.CreateForm(TForm2, Form2);
Application.Run;
end.
