Hi!

I'm working on a little project using Visual c++. I'm having problems with the duplicate copy of the file.

Ie, A .h file is opened from 2 sources.

1) From the include files from the mapped drive (Obtained from running the .BAT file)

2) From the actual file path . Eg: C: projects\example.h

The changes made in one file is not retained in the other. Its really a pain!

Any suggestions?

with the duplicate copy

Did you know which one is of your interest. Take it modify it and discard the other. Why to open from two sources ??

When you take (even same) files from two different paths, how come a change made to one will be updated to other ?
If it happens, then feel sorry, as you are effected with virus !

And why to modify a .h file you got from some one !!! ???

Well I don't open from 2 sources. If right click on the #include example.h from my .cpp file, It opens up from the path.

But These files are in one project and declared in a separate project and there are 30 plus projects, each of which are interlinked!
