I find it safer to create a project first then either add existing forms, classes, etc to it or use the New button to create a new one which is then within the project. A form in a project can be used in other projects, just remember that any changes you make to it will be reflected in the other project when it is next built.
To answer your question - I don't think it will make any difference if you rename a form which is not in a project. If it is in a project then remove it from the project without deleting it from the disc, then move or rename it and add it back to the project. If you move your classes then all that will happen is that it will whinge that it can't find the class and ask you where it is. I have a folder called Common Code which has sub-folders for prgs, forms, reports, classes, etc. These are used to hold my standard classes and any standard programs such as my error-handling routine. When I start a new job I create a folder for it with a sub-folder called sourcecode. In that folder is a project and sub-folders for prgs, menus, forms, project specific classes, etc. John Weller 01380 723235 07976 393631 > Being a lot shortsighted, I created some forms based off some form classes > I'd already created, and I put everything in the same directory.
