Default Performing floating point in VHDL

Hi,
I am using Modelsim 6.0a .. I need to perform floating point
operations in VHDL (multiplication and addition)..But the IEEE library
that I use in Modelsim 6.0 doesnt have the support ..So I need to
create a library and use ..i could get the floating point package
files from http://www.eda.org/fphdl/ but I dont know how to create a
library from these files and start using this library ..Can anyone
help me in this ..Thanks in advance

Easiest way is to compile the files
you need into your work directory:

vcom some_lib.vhd

and try them out:

use work.some_lib.all;
