Hi,

We developed our own template and it works. Great. Now we wanted to provide the template files (binding file, template and preset file) in a way that the whole dev group can use it. To use means to add the files to our source control system, too.

So we looked for a possibility to hard code the paths to those files in the project properties, which would be the easiest way to do this - we failed.

Any suggestions how to do this? It's not very handy to keep the files of each developer's system up-to-date just to use the newest files.

Thanks again for your answers!

There's an additional templates folder in the project properties. you can specify for example '.\Tempates' which means the 'Templates' folder in the folder the project file was found. Do you keep the project file in sourcecontrol as well?

Oops, found it. This is exactly what we were looking for... wink We should open our eyes while looking smile

Yes, the project file is source controlled, too. So we can use relative paths - nice!

Thanks for your answer!
