When I am called in to audit/rescue a project, one of the items on my

call or a programmatically-created resource within the project.
It is an excellent exercise to confirm your project CAN be rebuilt,
but it's not a good way to rename a project.
I just didn't like the initial project name. Now that I'm ready to
deliver to end-user, I wanted to change the name to a better one. I
know that I can change the name when building the EXE, but I've never
liked that idea...always wondered why somebody would want to do that. I
know if there was a problem reported in MyApp.EXE, I'd like to search
for project MyApp. If the EXE was named something different than the
project, that might cause confusion and delay, not to mention cursing.
