When you right-click on the form in the IDE, is the menu item "Text-DFM"
(or maybe called "Text as DFM") checked? If not, do so, save and try to
compile.

I believe I read somewhere that this option is only for
backwards-compatibility to older Delphi-versions. It was introduced in
D4 or D5 and should be checked normally. Unchecking it is usually no
problem.
I have no further background about that error and *why* exactly it
occurs, only *when*: I use WinCVS and usually check in DFM-files as
text. Sometimes the Text-DFM options gets unchecked automatically (I
believe its Delphi that does it, I don't). When I then commit the file,
it suddenly is a binary but CVS still thinks its a textfile. After that,
I always get the error you got. Maybe the binary DFM-file gets corrupted
or something.
If you uncheck the option on the form you had problems with, it should
now compile as well without errors, because switching from Text-DFM to
binary produces a new, valid binary DFM.

Thank you.
