I know how to generate scntoc files but that doesn't help me. I have to check different files from different persons, projects and different SI versions, and not all of those scenes have a scntoc file. Sometimes I open them in a higher version SI and make the mistake to save and overwrite them. (not very often and always have backups but I would like to prevent a disaster.) So far I wrote an event to trigger before saving, get the file version through printver.exe and compare this version with the app.version and if the major number doesn't match open a warning msgbox to cancel or proceed. I don't know yet how to get the printver result directly into SI so I'm using > txt and then read that txt file.
