Quote:In the past...whenever I have tried to create Version 2's, etc., it seems as though the modified MAP and OOB files always point to the original SCN file no matter how I try to rename it. Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong?

What I would try;

1. Open the map file; slick 'save as' and rename the file (aachen2 for example)

2. Open the OOB file, click 'save as' and rename to the same file name as the map file.

3. Open the SCN file and click 'save as.' Rename the same name as the other 2 files.

4. If you have a picture file included, rename using the procedure as above.

5. The file renaming steps (above) should be done in the order listed!

That *should* work. The only time you have to worry about remaking a whole new SCN file is when you change ANYTHING on the OOB or MAP files. Simply renaming *hopefully* won't cause any problems.

Lets cross our fingers and hope it works ok. I've noticed that some of the newer scenarios have rather 'technical' file names for the most part - most likely to help prevent this kind of glitch. Big Grin

I thought that didn't work as the original map and org file names are hard coded in the scn file.

again Jason is faster than me...
