Um, in order to host pictures, you need to have them on something like photobucket, not your computer. Maybe you can copy the text from the error message and post it here.

Ok, the line 1, line 2, line 3 thing means this:

Each line of text in the file is numbered, but not in the file.

Example:

Code:
1: Datamodule
2: [tab] Includefile = "Dummy Template.rte/Index.ini"


So, on the 5th line in the file, what does it say?
Since it's in the "Index.ini", I presume you're trying to load a file. Basically, the error is saying it cannot open the file. Check you've spelled it's name right and make sure that it actually exists.

EDIT:

I think I found your problem: it's looking at "Dummy Template.ini". Make sure that that file isn't broken or something. I've never seen the "Author" bit before, but that's just me. I can't remember, does it handle spaces when reading a filename?
