Description Simon Arsenault CLA 2001-11-27 15:23:09 EST 
In the context menu of a project, there is two actions "Close Project" 
and "Open Project". They are mutually exclusive - that is, only one is enabled 
at a time.

Since opening and closing a project is not something that is done very often, 
could we move this to the Info page on the Properties dialog? It could be 
implemented much the same as Read Only attribute.

This would help in removing some of the clutter on the context menu.

The context menus are getting pretty big. We should seriously look at taking 
these two menu items out and into the properties dialog.

No plans to change current behavior
