Form Date Changes With Every Project Build

I have a project with 180 forms. After every build, 3 of these forms have new date and times even though no changes were made. I have removed them from the project, deleted the files, built the project, copied the files back to the project folder, added them back to the project, and built the project and the problem still occurs.

Any ideas why this is being triggered every time for only these 3 forms.

Thanks

Greg,
Do these forms use any classes that are being changed? Do they use any Header (.H) files that are being changed? Do they depend on anything else in the project? If you do an explicit COMPILE FORM on them prior to building the Project do they still get rebuilt? Are these forms in your current VFP PATH setting?

Thanks for the reply. This anamoly occurs if I just completed a build waited a minute and did another build without changing anything in the entire project.

The forms are in the same folder as all of the other forms.

I need to correct my statement. When preparing to try the explicit compile, I did a build first and this time the dates did not change on these forms. I apparently need to verify the conditions under which they change.

I will add another post once I can refine the problem statement.

I know I'm not losing my mind because these three files regularly trip up my source control procedures.

Thanks
Greg
