Dear Juergen, Okay. I see. But this does lead to one more question. Presumably, if a .apl and .xml file exists for the same workspace _and_ the user specifies the full file name (with the .apl or .xml) then you wouldn't have to issue an error about the two versions of the same ws since the user specified exactly which to load. Is that true?
Thanks.
