I have a simple problem i have some units in the main folder and my project is located in a sub folder and i want to use the units from the main folder. I used this :

uses
ACMIN in '..\ACMIN.pas'

I get the error : File not found ACMIN.dcu.

The code you post is from a .pas file rather than a .dpr file. So far as I am aware that should be a syntax error so I'm a little confused.

As for how to do it right, I would move

ACMIN in '..\ACMIN.pas'

into the .dpr file's uses clause. The path is relative to the directory containing the .dpr file.

Then you can write

uses
  ACMIN;

in your .pas files.

Add the path of the main file to the Project library

Tools->Environment Options->Library->Library paths

and you can use uses ACMIN
