Hi Rick,

My main help project has been feeling a bit poky recently so I decided to try out the various cleanup tools in WWHHB. When I ran this particular tool it raised a standard VFP error dialog. It appeared to be scanning the wrong location?

It's scanning your project directory. Make sure your project is open and active.

It was open. I promise.

Maybe one of the other functions closed something? I'll try restarting the app, opening my project, and try the remove ref bit before doing anything else.

I restarted as mentioned and it did start the scan in the proper location. This project does live on a LAN file server and is accessed via a mapped drive. Perhaps the network connection dropped or something else I did changed drives? IAC seems to be working as expected now. If I can reproduce it again I'll let you know.

One possible clue here; I opened WWHB with my project, closed the automagic preview window, ran cleanup project, ran backup project and I hit this:
