hhcommon.pas should compile to hhcommon.vpi/hhcommon.lib, a "Make" (F9) 
in the IDE should create the critter, in my case in "C:\vp21\out.w32\units"

FWIW, my VP install is the one that is created by the VP installer, i.e. 
in c:\vp21, with only the CHM (from Ning) documentation added to the 
vp21\doc library.
