This is true, but partially compensated for a project's ability
to update the IDL path preference when a project is opened
or closed. Of course, you have to have this turned on for
a project.

As I expected, though, the ability to the update path preference
works better in theory than in practice. Unless you have the
discipline to maintain only one version of any particular
file (and who does!?) I find there is always a question of
which file I have opened. As far as I know, there is no
good way to tell. I always have to close all my files and
start over, opening them up one by one so I am sure. :-(

Cheers,

David
