User overrides are not handled in D2006. I installed ODBCExpress. It adds a variable named OE to Options, Environment variables, and uses it to reduce library path to $(OE)\Lib.When I run using FB, I get an error:-- Error expanding variables in Library Path : Variable : OE - does not exist!Damir BulicSpectral Core

In the FinalBuilder options dialog, select Compilers, Borland Delphi. Check the “Use BDS 2006 Environment Variables at Startup”. Click ok and then restart FinalBuilder.
