Note that although having the unit named equally to a function, procedure or a variable defined within the unit (or elsewhere) is not really advisable, it is possible, but you need to take scoping rules into account when trying to access the function, procedure or variable. In your particular case, you would need to use DebugPrint.DebugPrint (your parameters) in order to tell the compiler that you refer to the function DebugPrint stored within unit DebugPrint referenced in the "uses" section. That's also why the compiler suggested that you should use '.' after DebugPrint.
