Hi Bill.

Have you followed these steps?

"Make a backup copy of all your application folders under your CodeMine root folders.
Run the program "tools\FixCommonHeaders.prg" to convert any embedded "common50" path elements to the new "common" name. This will also update the changed class library file names. Changes will be made to all projects under your CodeMine root folder, so you only need to do this once for all projects.
Then, rebuild each project with a command like "BUILD PROJECT MyProject RECOMPILE". This will pull the new class libraries into your project.
Then, initialize the CodeMine Development Environment, or Select "Prepare Project for Rebuild" from the CodeMine menu. Either of these will update the application meta-data in the appApplicationSettings class.
Once all of these steps are complete, you can rebuild your EXE, or continue working on the project in the Development Environment."

Hope it helps.

Cheers.
Ivan
