Morning to you Steve,

First, thank you.

Second, in thinking some more about this, if there was one change I'd make to what I posted, it would be to iterate backwards through the array when you restore the projects. This will cause them to be in the same z-order they were in when you executed the code.

Another thought would be to make it a wrapper rather than part of an application, passing it the exe file name. This will allow you to remove the unnecessary code from the application, and, do things like automatically re-build the executable from project. Just an idea.
