FB 4.1.0.199 -no problem building my Delphi7 project, but with 4.1.0.228 fail with error: XXX.dpr - file not found.  
  
Situation:  
In Action I set only dpr(s) name. In StartingDir :  
%FBPROJECTDIR%\XXX\<br\>  
Wach i is fine.  
MessageBox with %FBPROJECTDIR%\XXX\ shows real dir with my project in it.  
  
I seems that new FB 4.1.0.228 ins’t use StartingDir properly.  
  
Please check it.   
  
Now I’m using 199 build agone.

Hi  
  
I just tested this with 4.1.0.228 and it worked as expected, perhaps I’m not understanding fully what you are seeing. Please send an example project to support so we can try to reproduce the problem.
