Hello Judith thanks for tring to help,

I openned a previously made .prj pressed F5. It ran my .exw file fine. But when
I opened EDITA with Launch it only showed me the Project file. No .exw file to be
seen.  This seems very complicated. For the the next version I would like to seen
a menu Item that said "Show Me the Last .exw that was Created"
