Nope. It's intended that the vcx is no there. The VCX will be created from a text file.
If I can MODI PROJ I can ask the project for the hook and process the text file.
If this errors I still can parse the PJX as DBF - but this is so boring. :)
Number one best would be to ignore the err - it will open the PJX with all the info, and I don't need the hook in that moment.

it's just

*... create anything that belongs to the pjx (including pjx) except the hook
      MODIFY PROJECT (lcFile) NOWAIT NOSHOW NOPROJECTHOOK
      loProject = _VFP.PROJECTS(JUSTFNAME(lcFile))
      lcFile    = loProject.PROJECTHOOKLIBRARY
      loProject.CLOSE
*.. post process hook
*now pjx is valid
