Bruce,

THANKS !!

That did the trick. There was a bad report file there without a time stamp. I recreated the report and the project now build correctly.

Many thanks,
Greg

Chances are, that's the file that crashed your build. From your description, I'd expect a corrupted report file.

If it fails again, repeat the steps to open the project as a table and browse down to the empty timestamp.

>>>Check to see if "it" added any files that you may not have transported. I'd open the .PJX file and check the files at the end to see if any aren't yet in the converted format. (Also make sure none are marked Read-Only - this can cause a lot of trouble for a project build.)

I deleted it, and tried to re-build, and continue to get the "not a table" error. Also, none of the files in the project is marked as "read only".
