PRB: EXE with Included CONFIG.FPW Does Not Allow -C Option (156057)

WORKAROUND

You can work around this problem in one of two ways:

Do not add the CONFIG.FPW to the project. Or, add it to the project but mark it Excluded. The CONFIG.FPW must be provided as a separate file but it can be overridden with a -c or -c<other config filename>. -or-
Give the configuration file a name other than CONFIG.FPW. The configuration file must always be specified on the Command line to be utilized but can be overridden by specifying -c or -c<other config filename>.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Create a new project, TEST.PJX.
Add a main program, TEST.PRG, with the following contents:
```
   =Messagebox("Main program!")
						
```
Create a CONFIG.FPW file with the following contents:
```
   TITLE=Built in CONFIG was used
						
```
Add the CONFIG.FPW file to the project as a Text File. It will be marked Included by default.
Build an executable, TEST.EXE.
Create an alternate config file, OTHER.FPW, with the following contents:
```
   TITLE=Alternate CONFIG
						
```
From the Win95 RUN menu, execute:
C:\<directory with EXE>\TEST.EXE -cOTHER.FPW

Despite the -c to override the built-in CONFIG file, the main Visual FoxPro window appears with the title of "Built in CONFIG was used," demonstrating that the built-in CONFIG.FPW file was used rather than OTHER.FPW.

There are two methods to work around the problem in the above example.

Method 1:

Under step 4 above, add the following:

   4a. In the Project Manager, right-click on the Config file and select
       Exclude.

Method 2:

Change step 3 above to read:

Create a MYCONFIG.FPW file with the following contents:

      TITLE=Built in CONFIG was used

Change step 4 above to read:

Add the MYCONFIG.FPW file to the project as a Text File. It will be marked Included by default.

Now the built-in configuration file, MYCONFIG.FPW, can be utilized only by specifying the configuration file, such as C:\<directory with EXE>\TEST.EXE -cMYCONFIG.FPW. Use of -c will cause no configuration file to be used, and -cOTHER.FPW will allow OTHER.FPW to be used.
