Thank you, Beth. This is probably what I executed.

>>>>>>Last night I was working with one of my VFP 9 projects. I was not doing any changes just looking at something. Then, sometimes later, when I opened my VFP 9, I noticed that all of the projects were gone. Typically when I open VFP 9 I see almost all of my project windows (about a dozen of them). So now I am going to each home directory of each project and issuing command MODIFY PROJ ? and opening projects.
