Well, in that case you can create a shortcut in every root dir project that starts a vfp9.exe in this directory, so depending on which directory you double-click the shortcut, the corresponding config.fpw is loaded.
I use something similar to this to open vfp9 sessions on different default directories

I guess the deal is that if I open VFP by clicking on a .PJX file, it seems to always open in the same dev environment, but if I open VFP by clicking on the VFP icon, I can get a new development environment. The challenge is that because I work on so many different projects I use unique config.fpw files to set the paths and other custom settings for each project. That means if I start the project from the folder where the config.fpw is located, all the settings are controlled by the config.fpw stored in that folder. However, if I start the program from the icon, it loads the standard default settings which are not necessarily what I need for each specific project.
I think what I was really asking was whether there was a setting that would force VFP to open new projects in a new development environment. Kind of like right clicking on a link and choosing to open the page in a new tab or a new window.

Sure. I do it all the time. It should just work unless you have your environment setup with some dependencies on exclusive access.

Does anyone know if there is a way to run multiple instances of the VFP development environment on the same computer. I run into this need from time to time, but I've not taken a lot of time to research it.
I know I can run multiple instances of a compiled VFP program, but every time I try to open multiple VFP projects, it simply brings the existing dev window forward and opens each project within the same development environment.
Short of running virtual machines, is this even possible?
