Hi All,
Need help to solve a small irritant on starting PB9.

- I recently had to upgrade as well as reformat my disk due to a
virus. In the new computer (With Windows Me), everytime I start
Powerbuilder (Professional), I am told that the existing workspace
file is not a Powerbuilder workspace. So everytime I have to recreate
a new workspace and add an existing target. Once I have done that, the
application works perfectly. This problem was not there before

Can anyone help solve this little irritant.

After this reply, I did transfer a a workspace file from my Laptop to
the current one - and its working, but not the original one. Sending
the syntax of both
- medic9.pbw (Working OK)

Save Format v3.0(19990112)
@begin Unchecked
@end;
@begin Targets
0 "medic.pbt";
@end;
DefaultTarget "medic.pbt";
DefaultRemoteTarget "medic.pbt";

-MEDICAID.PBW (Not working - get message 'MEDICAID.PBW is not a valid
powerbuilder Workspace)

Save Format v3.0(19990112)
@begin Unchecked
@end;
@begin Targets
0 "medicaid.pbt";
@end;
DefaultTarget "medicaid.pbt";
DefaultRemoteTarget "medicaid.pbt";

- both medic.pbt and medicaid.pbt are valid targets

And have found the answer too while typing this now _ apparently case
matters, PB does not tolerate Uppercase Workspace file names. The same
file is OK if renamed as medicaid.pbw
File now working well Thanx

As your .pbw files are normal textfiles you can look at the files an have a
look what has changed after closing(saving the .pbw file) powerbuilder. You
can also post your .pbw file.
