>This is something that has been put off a long time. We have many files that are no longer used. What is the best plan of attack to get as clean of a project as we can, where the code that is in it, and in the supporting directories, is only the code we need/use? We have a table driven menu, so some things will have to be looked at manually to see if they are needed. We can create an empty project, add the main program, and rebuild, but won't that also pickup up stuff that's not used if there is any reference to it in other code? How should we proceed? I'm tired of having useless files, references, a large EXE and bad code reference searches in this application. Any help appreciated.

Yes, I would probably start from the empty project and main program. When try to run it and this way try to find what references are missing.

The other way would be to pull all the class names (programs, etc.) from your current project and then run Code Reference to see where it's used or not used. Also sounds like a complex task, but may be partially automated.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
