I am trying to use this function for looking up mime types:

The resource file it comes with has hundreds of strings in it, but I have stripped it down to just one:

STRINGTABLE
BEGIN
101, ".3dm x-world/x-3dmf"
END

The project will not compile with this error:

[Pascal Error] E2161 Duplicate string: ID 101; File ...\mimetypes.res string kept: ".3dm x-world/x-3dmf"; file ...\mimetypes.res resource discarded: ".3dm x-world/x-3dmf".


Any idea whats wrong?

Thanks
It's possible you already have a string ID of 101 . I don't think the
contents of a string matters. It's the ID that is being used.
and if memory serves. 100 range is a common value used for something
in the resource, I just can't remember what it was.
