Adding files to Xcode 2.0

Hello,

I'm having trouble with something that should easy. When I add a file to my Xcode project using "File->New File..." the file is never placed where I specify.

My project is based on the "J2EE Web Module" template which automatically creates a folder (not a Group) called src containing HelloWorldServlet.java. If I select "New File..." selecting the J2EE- >Servlet template and just use the defaults for both "Choose name and location" and "Choose Servlet Properties" Xcode creates the new file not in the src directory as specified in Location, but rather it creates the file within a sub-sub folder of src, the path being .../ projectName/src/projectName/servlet/newfile.java

I have tried various different combinations of options (suffix, package, etc.) trying to get Xcode to actually put the file specified by Location with no luck.

A follow on question, why can't I move the source file in the file hierarchy within Xcode? I have to go to Finder to fix my file path issues.

A finally, when using "Add to Project...", how do you specify the destination group for the "Copy items into destination group's folder..."? Files seem to get added to the top level of the project, I can't select an alternate location, and then I can't move them.

Obviously I'm missing something fundamental. I've read the file organization section in the Xcode documentation but that didn't really shed light on my problem. If anybody can explain where I'm going wrong I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Michael
