Reading between the lines, it sounds as though I'd be best going through all projects and making sure that they build and run properly with 0.9.30 before doing anything else. Thank heavens I set up svn here a few months ago.

If that is the route to follow and knowing that 0.9.30 warns about unknown properties, would I be better working from my most recent revision of each project and manually removing properties (from which files- .lfm?) or would I be better going to an older revision to get safe forms and then integrating more recent code?


Don't know when the functionality was introduced, but when you load a form
using unknown properties you get a screen highlighting the problems and
proposing to remove all unknown properties. If your 0.9.30 has already this functionality then going this route is clearly the easiest.

Thanks Ludo, I've not seen that on either 0.9.30 or trunk... it sounds very much as though I've got a batch of screwed projects, due to moving onto trunk when I was having to use 2.7.1 because of SPARC problems. I think I should probably have a local policy of never committing a project if it's been saved by trunk.

I've managed to strip the project that started all this down, such that it's OK on 0.9.30 but fails to load correctly into trunk with no useful diagnostics. I don't know when the problem crept in, possibly around January.
