Cannot Access ClassView Information File

[balak yap]

Hello;
I have a diolog base MFC problem, but everytime i try to open the workspace, the VC++ will give me
the msg "Cannot access the classview information file" I can't access my project thru "classview".
How to solve this problem?
Thanks

Your .CLW file is probably corrupted. To fix this, delete your .CLW file. The next time you open ClassWizard, you will be asked whether you want to rebuild the .CLW file from your source files. Simply follow the prompts to rebuild it.

Hope this helps,
Ryan

The class view file is the .NCB file, not the .CLW file. CLW is the
class wizard file.NCB is the non-compiled browse information file.

Close MSDEV and delete the .NCB file from your source location. And reload the code.
It will work !

i deleted all the intermediate files (including .ncb) and it didn't work. :-)

As swalker said, close your Visual Studio (VC) and delete the .ncb, .aps, and .clw files. Reopen the project and those files will be recreated when needed.

Also, just in case you have this problem - be sure the .ncb file is not marked Read Only (not in source control).

Good luck.

everything done as per suggestions.

i have even tried to create a new project and still got the same error.
could there be problem with the installation or something else?

thanks Gurus,

I had the same problem. But I found that two msdev.exe processes where running even though i closed Visual Studio. Kill the processes if they are there and try deleting the files again.

I encountered the same problem, as suggested by Carl, I found two MSDEV processes in the task manager. I killed one of them, it worked for me. Thanks a lot, Carl.

Carl's suggestion worked for me too. Thanks a lot!

My VS had crashed so I had to run it again. So I had two instances of it running.
