CW 5.9.0 Project file sharing conflict

Hello,

 

I have a project that is shared with 3 developers. 

 

All 3 developers have the identical versions of Codewarrior and service packs installed. 

 

Developer "1" has Windows 7; Developer "2" and "3" have XP. 

 

Developer "1" and "3" open/save the project (project.mcp) in binary format.  Developer "2" can open either format of project file (project.mcp) but only saves the project file (project.mcp) in XML.  Developer "1" and "3" cannot open the XML file (project.mcp) directly, but must rename it and then import it.

 

What must Dev "2" do to save the project file the same format as the others (or vice-versa)?

 

Thanks,

Mark_A

Are you deleting priject_Data subfolder? I think it must be done when moving project to different machine.

I think I found the problem.  Under IDE Preferences->IDE Extras, Other Settings, "Use text-based projects" was checked.  I didn't see that the first 10 times I looked at it :-\

 

Now it works as expected.
