You can't compile and include file. However, I disabled the error trapping which appeared to MASK the compilation error. I then did a CLOSE ALL... CLEAR ALL... MODIFY PROJECT... then build. It comes back with cannot open the MyForm.scx file.

There's no project hooks, but looks like some kind of recursion opening reference. This is the only form it happens to. Bit of a pain, but I guess for now, I'll just have to suck-it-up and manually compile.

Thanks
