Bruce, I think the problem is that Protege encodes the base uri one way and TBC encodes it another way due to their use of different underlying toolsets (OWLAPI vs JENA). The differences between OWLAPI and Jena are smaller if you use turtle encoding. I was able to create ontologies in Protege using Turtle that opened correctly using ttl. When I tried owl/xml encodings of the same ontology TBC displayed a modal dialog box saying "Checking for imports..." which never terminated (for a two class one property file). Try saving in turtle format from Protege and then opening in TBC. The next thing you may encounter is a message offering you imports for your untyped resources. If you answer "yes" to this prompt, you should end up with what you're looking for, your classes and properties displayed in the appropriate panes without recourse to SPARQL queries or other special purpose panes. HTH, Kevin
