not yet another workbench workspace question!?! [message #60298]

Hi all,

if I try to make C:\Documents and Settings\Jean\My Documents\ as my
workspace, I got a nice error telling this directory is not writable..
1st time, IDL would crash, then it starts but I can not create any
project in there.... anyone has any idea as to why???

Ok, so, I have tried to make C:\Documents and Settings\Jean\My
Documents\IDL\ as my workspace, and it works fine. I have many folders
in there, as well as a few pro files (temporary files mainly.. like
whatever I download from the web, test files etc). For the folders, I
can easily make a project with them.... but how can I access the files
located a the root of my workspace? (of course, IDL refuse to have the
same directory as a workspace and as a project)? ... Sure, I can open
the files individually, and/or use "save as external", but is there a
way of viewing those files in the project Explorer?

Also, If I want to call one of this file from another program in a
project, is there any other way of having it compiled other than
manually (or in my start-up file) setting the path to the workspace
directory and below?

Thanks in advance!
... and sorry to bring the pain back :)

Jean
