VB Modules copied to different project folders get corrupted
I have a series of programs done in VB 5 which use most of the same code
modules (.bas) files and Form (.frm) modules. For each project, I copied
all the files from one project folder to another. There are small but
crucial differences in the modules from one project to another, though the
modules' names remain unchanged.
In saving, archiving, and transferring files from one machine to another,
I've noticed that changes are not always saved; files seem to revert back to
earlier versions.
I've been very careful of my habits for over half a year regarding this
practice, in case this is due to my oversight. I now suspect that VB does
something to reconcile modules of the same name even if they are in
different folders.
Am I nuts or is something going on here?
Thanks,
