Hello
You shall download the package for XE6 and you shall install the file XLSRWII5_DXE6.bpl. You will find the file in the dir [Public Documents]\Embarcadero\Studio\14.0\Bpl

Re: Installation in C++ Builder XE6
I do have trouble with XLSReadWriteII 5 with XE6. To be honest, I have not had single chance to get it working. Then I went back to XE5 and wait for a couple of weeks, give a try. If it is not working, go back to XE5 again. It seems that it is a big headache for me doing that back and forth a couple of times. Get back to my problem now, I found the component installed to this path: c:\Users\Public\Documents\RAD Studio\12.0\BPL\, not the path Lars mentioned in previous post. I have tried the latest version of 5.20.28 on C++ Builder XE6 on Windows 8.1/64bit. I can't get it to work, there are too many "Unsolved external ..." from XLSReadWrite component when linking. No instruction helps on installation.

Hello
"Unsolved external" means that there is some error with your installation, for example missing files (not on the search path), wrong package version of the files on the search path, etc. To correct the problem, manually delete all traces of the package. Search for XLS*.* When you found a directory, delete all files that belongs to the component. When all files are deleted, reinstall the component. When you compile and if you get a message about missing BPI/LIB files, search for them.

Hi, Lars,
I reinstalled the latest version 5.20.30 for XE6. It passes compiling, but it pops-up an error message saying "The program can't start because XLSRWII5_XE6.bpl is missing from your computer. Try to reinstalling the program to fix this problem." The test application is quite simple. It has a empty form. And a XLSReadWriteII5 added to the form. Without the XLSReadWriteII5 component, it runs ok. After I added the XLSReadWriteII5 component, it starts to give me that error message. My text machine is a new win8.1 machine and it is pretty clear. I only tried install/uninstall XLSReadWriteII5 component a couple of times.
In this test application, I DO have the path "c:\users\public\documents\rad studio\12.0\bpl" added to both my include path and lib path. But it still said "XLSRWII5_XE6.bpl is missing". Another thing you might want to keep consistent with new XE6 style is to set the default install path to "c:\users\public\documents\embarcadero\studio\14.0\bpl".
I think it is only one step away to resolve my problem having XLWReadWriteII5 working on XE6. Please advise! Thanks!
