[Lazarus] Project / Save Project As ... - expected behavior?

Mattias,
I tried this with a simple blank form project and it worked perfectly
and as expected.  All of the files (.lpi, .lpr, pas, lrm, etc... )
files moved to the new folder and compiled.  I'll try again with the
OnGuard examples to see if I continue to have issues.

I've copied the example from OnGuard to a new directory via my (not so
favorite windows explorer) file manager, but I am unable to get a
clean compile.  sigh.  More time to spend on this.

All, Thanks for the comments and suggestions.
