Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Project menu, Open Project command
 
     Choose Open Project to open an existing project to use in PWB. The
     Open Project dialog box provides the following options:
 
     Project Name
          Type the name of the project makefile, or select the project
          makefile in the File List box.
 
     Use as a Non-PWB Makefile
          Turn on to open a non-PWB project. A non-PWB project is a
          project whose makefile was not created by PWB. When you open
          a non-PWB project, menu commands that do not apply to non-PWB
          projects are unavailable.
          See: ◄Using Non-PWB Makefiles►
 
          Turn off to open a PWB project.
 
          Default: off
 
     Restore Window Layout
          Turn on to restore the window layout, file history, and
          search options from the project status file.
 
          IMPORTANT: Opening a project with this option turned on is
                     like exiting and restarting PWB with the project.
                     All open files are closed. If the Autosave switch
                     is set to No, you are prompted to save any modified
                     files. If you do not choose Yes in response to the
                     prompt to save the file, your changes are lost.
 
          Turn off to retain the same configuration and ignore the
          saved project configuration.
 
          The Restorelayout switch provides the default setting for
          this check box. When you change this option, PWB does not
          change the setting of the Restorelayout switch.
          See: Restorelayout
 
     To create a new PWB project, choose New Project.
