Could you amplify the binary program idea? I can imagine what it is, but how would one proceed to actually do it? Can you make changes in the file?

You can use a binary file viewing program. The last time I looked,
the filenames were near the end of the file. Entire paths are shown.
By using a sector editor (in an old version of Norton Utilities) I
was able to change the paths of the files and open the layouts.

From my experience, layout files are not very useful long term. If I
make a bunch of layouts today, I will probably not be able to open
any of them next year. I always store the maps seperately, and a
paper copy of the layout so I can re-create it.
