>>>I am working on a Project Hook that will make a backup copy of the project currently open. The problem is that FoxPro opens the Project file (and at times others) as exclusive. Does anyone know of a command line method (either in Fox or DOS, or even WINAPI) where I can force a copy to be made to the desired destination?

MODIFY PROJECT myproject.PJX noshow
oPjx=_vfp.Projects.Item(1)
oPjx.ProjectHook = ;
   NewObject('MyProjectHook', 'MyClass.vcx')

...but neither oPjx (i.e. the project manager hook) nor the oPjx.ProjectHook have that method to invoke SaveAs().

I tried (with oPjx.visible=.t. so it would be the default thing to save as)

?SYS(1500,"_msysmenu", "_mfi_savas","trtmrt.pjx")

but that got me nowhere. Even with full path,
