How to install the components
1. Standard Components
Extract all Files with path information in a directory e.g.  C:\Projects\TAPI-Components by using winzip .

Rename TAPI_XX.INC to TAPI.INC and copy to Std Subfolder.
What mean this files :
TAPI_14.INC - Windows 95a or greater. 
TAPI_20.INC-  Windows NT4 SP3  or greater.
TAPI_21.INC-  Windows 98, ME, NT4 SP4 or greater. (Available as a redistributable for Windows 95.)
TAPI_22.INC- Windows 2000, XP  

In Delphi select File>Close All. Select Components>Install Components>Into new package.
Click Browse Button and go to std subfolder in your install directory.
Select all pas files in this folder (use shift key to select more than one) and click open.

Enter now the package file name e.g. c:\programs\borland\delphi6\Lib\tapi22_d6.dpk and enter a description e.g. TAPI Components for Delphi Beta. Press now OK. In confirm message box "Package tapi22_d6.bpl will built then install. continue ?" Click "No".
Select View>Project Manager and double click tapi22_d6.bpl.
 
2. ACD Components 
In Package Manager press Add button and go to your install directory. Select all pas files from ACD subfolder. Click open and then OK.
Compile your package. Do not press F9 !

If you get an Error : File not found '..\..\Source\std\TAPI.INC'. Make sure TAPI.INC is located in Source\Std.
To resolve this problem change the line {$INCLUDE ..\..\TAPI.INC} to {$INCLUDE TAPI.INC}. I'm not sure why, but you must do this in Delphi 6.

If you haven't other errors then press compile and install. Now you have two new tabs in your component palette.
Standard functionality is now installed. Congratulation .
3. Special Components (they are using standard components) - optional
You can now or later all pas files from subfolder Source\misc in the same way. (All forms are in to German !)
If you are a Delphi 6 or 7 user, you can copy English translated files from Delphi 6(7)\Forms to Source\misc)
Do not use this files in an other version.
Compile and Install - Ready !
