Um, nope - that wasn't it. First, I did try that; second, no changes
were made to LSC when I started successfully creating new project files.
The problem just about has to be an incompatibility between the 2.01
and the 2.15 project file formats - perhaps something as simple as a
missing SIZE resource in the old project files (although I looked for
one in the new project files and didn't find one). But back when I upgraded
from 1.02 to 2.01, LSC automagically converted the project files very neatly.

Oh, golly, did I type 4.3?  What a silly mistake! I meant to say, obviously,
"under both System 4.2 and the watchful eye of my little puppy." :-)
