After you copied the project, did you open the project using modify project or simply issue build... ? I've noticed that it only prompts when you modify the project.

>But that's the problem. We copied into another directory and it never prompted to set it as the home so the build errored out.

>>>What causes the message to popup that asks whether you want to change the home directory for the project? I thought it was simply having project files that did not have stored the same directory as the location of the files. We got our project files out of our source control, the directory where the project files were put is not the same as what is stored in the first record of the pjx file, but it does not prompt to change the directory for the project.
