VERICUT 7.0: Re-opening current control file fails

Attempting to re-open the current control in a setup fails to open the file in VERICUT 7.0. No message is displayed, leaving you thinking that you successfully re-opened the file.

For example; let's say you make some changes to the control configuration, then decide you don't want to keep the changes and want to start again. You then re-open the original control file in order to toss-out the changes and re-load your original control file so you can start-over. But the original control file is not re-loaded and you still have the changes you made, resident in VERICUT's memory. Thus if you save the control you will overwrite the original.

As a work-around either; 1) reopen the project file, which will re-open the original control file, 2) open some other control file of a different name, the open your original control file.

The problem seems to be that if the control file name being opened is the same name as the current control file, then the file is not opened.
