Dear All,

What does the following file extension implies,

AC2, ACC, ACT, AUD, CAL,DIR, DST, HOL, ITM, LAY, LOG, PLT, PPA, REL, REP, RES, RLB, SPR, STR, STW, TIM, TTL, WBS, S50.

What will happen If I delete any of these files from the folder.

I just know that If we delete RLB file the resource dictionary will be deleted completely.

What does the other file means,

With Thanks & Regards,

Anbin Ponnith

    Anbin,
    DON’T! Do not delete any of the 23 files that share the same first 4 letters and have each of the last 3 letters you call "extension".
    A P3 project is stored in these 23 files whose name begins with the 4 letters or digits of the project name you have keyed in in the New Project dialog box; I am not sure of all the 3 letters, I willonly give some examples: CAL = list of calendars, HOL = list of days off in the calendars, WBS = Work Breakdown Structure, LAY = list of layouts, ... S50 = administrative file containing the user ID.
    HTH, Alexandre
