Help Required with Linking Problem (Builder 6.0)

Hello,
I am having a problem with a project that I am trying to upgrade from
Builder V4.0 to V6.0. The problem is that I get a [Linker Error] Fatal
Application Violation.
What I have tried:
1. Downloading the update #4
2. Converting my project into a make file. When I do this, the make file
give the error 'Fatal: Unable to open file 'BDERTL.LIB''
My project consists of a number of packages, some of which I somehow managed
to compile (but I am not sure how I did it!!)
I would really appreciate any ideas.
Regards
Trevor Keegan

Hello
Looking into the problem further, it seems as though the correct
release/debug directory is not being set. If manually set it in the Library
paths, then the problem goes away, but I am sure that this should not be the
way to do things.
I have also noticed that if I take the example FishFact application, I can
build it no problem (using the IDE), but if I export it to a make file then
it starts complaining about the the same files all over again.
I would be grateful if someone can tell me what setting(s) I need to check
to get this whole thing working.
Regards

Do not bother allowing the IDE to convert the project - that is
fraught with problems. Recreate the project from scratch.
