I want every time I create a new project, my RESOURCES' Custom Version Information fields be filled with permanent information, but when I close and open SF8, the previous information are erased and Custom Version Information is unchecked. What must I do?
Best Regards

This is most probably a limitation of the evaluation version of SUF80. I can't see this happen with my commercial version, as custom information is correctly retained here. You are using an eval version, aren't you?

Hi Searcher123,
Basically the settings on the Build | Settings | Resources tab are per-project settings. This means that they are stored in each of your separate project files and are not "global" Setup Factory settings.
Currently there is no way to change the default Resource settings for each new project. I have made a note of this in our suggestions database.

Thank you very mush.
Is it possible to use the Session Variables in the Custom Version Information? I tried this without success, and was wondering if it is possible.
Like "Company Name: = %CompanyName%"
Thank you,
MSP

You can use build constants in resources.
Remember that session variables exist only during runtime... but that you can assign build constants to session variables.

That helps a lot, thank you for your help!

Create a boiler-plate SF8 with the session variables and other per project settings you want. Open the boiler-plate instead of opening a new project
Bare in mind some settings like the Project theme is dependant upon file locations on your development computer
I've created a boiler-plate with Session Variables and a On-Startup script, I use it all the time.
