Bummer. Thanks for the quick reply.

I'm trying to one of the new features documented in the PB 2.1
release notes.
Under "Build settings changes", the 8th bullet says, "Build settings
can now be referenced in the Info.plist Settings dictionary of a
target." It then gives an example. I am basically trying to do the
exact same thing as the example, that is, add a version number to the
build settings and reference it in the Info.plist dictionary, instead
of entering the version number several times in different places.
In the Target window -> Settings -> Expert View, I added a Build
Setting named CURRENT_VERSION (just like the example) with a value of
"5.0d6" (without the quotes). In the same window -> Info.plist
Entries -> Expert View, I substituted "$(CURRENT_VERSION)" (without
the quotes) for several property list values, ex. for
CFBundleGetInfoString, I used "$(CURRENT_VERSION). Copyright ) 2002
Crewdog Software. All Rights Reserved." (without the quotes). I then
built the target. It doesn't work. all the CURRENT_VERSION references
($(CURRENT_VERSION)) do not substitute the build setting's value. In
the Finder and About box, I see "$(CURRENT_VERSION)" instead of the
build setting's value, "5.0d6". I even cleaned the target and trashed
the built app -- no difference. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Keith
