Perhaps you mean C:\Documents and Settings\UsereName\Local Settings\Application Data\Borland...
yes, you are right, but you must first create the file! AND THEN RESTART
THE IDE for using the settings for new projects!! Believe me, I thought I
get crazy until that problem was solved.
When you have carried out all settings in your project (Project->Options)
then you must check "Default". Then the default project file is created
in
C:\Documents and Settings\USER_NAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Borland\BDS\4.0\DefProject.bdsproj
BUT RESTARTING THE IDE is really annoying. And sometimes it would be
usuful to be able to import these settings for an already existing
project.
Thank you all for your efforts - the last hint from Michel Leunen,
thread "default project options"
