Are you suggesting I should replace the basedir attribute in the property file to literal path? I could try that and see but would prefer a better way as I would be changing similar path for many projects in the property file against advice by Tolven not to edit that file.Thanks,IMJ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
