1) I get the dreaded "resource file version mismatch" before the first line of code executes in main (put in a wait window that is never displayed). Where should I put the SYS(2005)? (I assume you meant 2005 not 2019).

2) Applied your changes to the vfp "open". It allowed me to double click on the pjt and open VFP5.0 for some short period of time. Then for some reason it started reverting back to its old behavior: Vfp5 does open, but then i get "unrecognized command verb" and the project comes up in a prg type window (not project manager) with the unprintable characters.

Any other ideas?

>To fix the pjx association, go into Windows Explorer. Choose Options from the View menu and click the file type tab. Find MS VFP Project type and double-click it. Under actions double-click open. The application used should look like this (substitute the path to your VFP exe): "c:\program files\vfp50\vfp.exe" -SHELL Check Use DDE and put Open("%1") under DDE Message, FoxPro under application and System under topic.

>>1) I can execute my exe (built from 5.0) from within vfp5.0 (program, do, from the menu). But, if i double click on the exe from explorer I get the dreaded "resource file version mismatch". I do not even need the resource file in this small exe and included a config.fpw that has "resource=off". Nowhere in the exe is the resource file set. Several of my 5.0 exe run ok, but many get the resource version mismatch. I renamed my VFP6.0 foxuser.dbf hoping that might help, it did not.

>>2)another problem is when i double click on the pjt or pjx from explorer. I have VFP 5.0 set up to open those file types. Vfp5 does open, but then i get "unrecognized command verb" and the project comes up in a prg type window (not project manager) with the unprintable characters. Project opens ok if I open it from within VFP5.0, but I am in the habit of opening from explorer, and now that does not work.
