We&nbsp;recently&nbsp;added FinalBuilder 6 to our tools; we have been using version 5.&nbsp; We use the PropertySet feature to track BuildVersion and automatically increment each time we build.&nbsp; We converted our first project to v6 and had issues with the BuildVersion incrementing automatically.

I have created a test project from scratch that simply does the following:

Defines a propertyset.&nbsp; Loads from Project Info.&nbsp; Assigns a project variable "BuildNumber' to the BuildVersion.&nbsp; Increments the BuildVersion.&nbsp; Saves the BuildVersion to the "BuildNumber" variable.&nbsp; Saves the PropertySet to the Proj Info file.

The first time I run this project, the "Load PropertySet from Proj Info" always fails.&nbsp; The error message is:&nbsp; "Section not found: TestService" and "Loading default values."&nbsp; If I run the project a second time, or 100 more times, it always successfully finds the section and saves it to the file.

Is this normal behavior?&nbsp; Shouldn't a PropertySet saved to the Project Info file be readable the first time a project is loaded?&nbsp; I have looked at the project info file with a text editor and the property set is defined in the XML.

&nbsp;
