Suddenly, after many months of problem free usage of vs.net 2003 ( version
7.1.3088), when I open the IDE, select "new project", select folder, assign
name ("testcode"), and then click "OK"...  I get a dialog box with the
following error message:  "The folder 'testcode' isn't accessible.  The
folder may be located in an unavailable location, protected with a password,
or the filename contains a / or \."

I looked at Windows XP Pro's file access rights for the file folder, and
don't see anything that looks out-of-the ordinary that might cause a file
access problem.  (But, I really don't know what to look for in this case?!)
The users with access are me, administrators, and System (all of which have
full rights.)

The file folder I am targetting is simply a subdirectory of vs.net's default
location.  Nothing special there.

BTW, I find no reference to such an issue in MS Knowledgebase.  No luck via
Google groups.

What could be cause? Very urgent, BTW.

Thanks, Bruce
