Unable to open file 'STDCTRLS.OBJ'

First of all, sorry for my bad english.

I started with Delphi today, created a simple form example named test.

unit teste;

interface

uses
  Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms,
  Dialogs, StdCtrls;

type
  TForm2 = class(TForm)
    Edit1: TEdit;
    Label1: TLabel;
  private
    { Private declarations }
  public
    { Public declarations }
  end;

var
  Form2: TForm2;

implementation

{$R *.dfm}

end.

I searched at google, then here and did not find an answer for this problem, I´m not able to run it, because the logs return these errors:

[ILINK32 Error] Fatal: Unable to open file 'STDCTRLS.OBJ'

I had no idea how to fix it, could you help me?

Thanks! best regard´s.

It looks like you've created a C++Builder project, but written/pasted in Delphi code. Delphi doesn't use ILINK at all, and it doesn't use STDCTRLS.OBJ (it would complain about StdCtrls.dcu instead).

Since you have no functional code in the project, I'd just start over. Use File|Close All, and don't save changes. Then use File|New|VCL Forms Application - Delphi for Win32, and hit F9 to see if you can run that project.

Make sure the IDE's search paths are configured correctly, and that the project has correct references to the RTL and VCL packages.
