Actually, that's the Project Window... the Project Inspector is a separate
window that appears when you tap the "Project Inspector" button in the
project window. This can be very useful: open it, then click on one of
your .rcp files, and you'll see where the IDE thinks it is, and what file
type the IDE thinks it is.

Try using the "re-search for files" command from the Project menu. Just
changing the names in the XML file isn't enough, since the files are
associated with different compilers. Also, open the "File Mappings" panel
and do a "Factory Defaults" to make sure all the extensions associate with
the right things.
You can also try re-importing the XML file, with a few fixes. If you still
have the XML around, look for the sections that look like
<FILE>
<PATHTYPE>Name</PATHTYPE>
<PATH>RocksNewHighScore.rsrc</PATH>
<PATHFORMAT>MacOS</PATHFORMAT>
<FILEKIND>Resource</FILEKIND>
<FILEFLAGS>Debug</FILEFLAGS>
</FILE>
When you change the name from "RocksNewHighScore.rsrc" to
"RocksNewHighScore.rcp" (for example), you should also change the FILEKIND
from "Resource" to "Text".
