Hi Richard

Many thanks for your reply. I haven't used Environment Manager much but that's definitely an approach to consider.  I really don't want to create shortcuts for PJXs that I only open rarely on an ad hoc basis (as opposed to those that I am actively working on).

It's still frustrating that the Command=Do Startup in Config.FPW seems to get bypassed when double-clicking on a PJX - but perhaps that's just the way it is.

I never open VFP by using Explorer so hard to say what’s happening. I’d check 
the help  for the precedence on how config.fpw gets picked up but otherwise you 
can create shortcuts to your PJXs and force a specific file by using the -c 
switch.

I’m also a big (maybe the only) fan of Environment Manager in VFP. I have it 
set to run on startup and from there I can just pick which thing I need to work 
on, and have it set up the full environment, including associated projects.

Subject: Config.FPW command ignored when double-clicking on PJX in Explorer

Hi all

I have a folder containing a PJX, Config.FPW, Startup.PRG,
StartThor.PRGand StartHackCX.PRG

Config.FPW contains "Command=Do Startup.PRG"
Startup.PRG contains:
   Do StartThor.PRG
   Do StartHackCX.PRG

The problem is that none of these commands executes when double-clicking
on the PJX in Windows Explorer (or other file manager), even though
Sys(2019) points to the Config.FPW in the folder in question.

Any ideas or is this just the way it works?

Paul Newton
