My folder structure is as follows:
D:\LDraw\MLCad_V3.10\ includes MLCad 3.10 install, including MLCad.exe and MLCad.ini
D:\LDraw\Parts\
D:\LDraw\Parts\S
D:\LDraw\P\
D:\LDraw\P\48\
D:\LDraw\NewParts\
D:\LDraw\NewParts\S\
D:\LDraw\MyParts\
NewParts and MyParts contain only new parts (which don't exist in Parts)
I have changed the section to full paths:
[SCAN_ORDER]
1 = SHOW Parts
2 = HIDE Parts\s
3 = HIDE P
4 = HIDE P\48
5 = SHOW D:\LDraw\NewParts
6 = HIDE D:\LDraw\NewParts\s
7 = SHOW D:\LDraw\MyParts
I launch MLCad by doubleclicking on D:\LDraw\MLCad_V3.10\MLCad.exe from the
explorer.
Still no success.

Personally I would like to see a standard parts structure like this, at least
for MLCAD;
Parts
oldparts
unoffparts
myparts
Parts would be the officially released parts
oldparts would be where old official parts are moved to when they are updated
unoffparts is just that, unapproved parts not part of official release
myparts is where you can develop new parts.
In MLCAD you click on the parts list you want and get only the parts in that
list.
when you display an existing model and the part exists in more than one list,
display a selection box to allow the person to select the version of the part
they want to use.
there would have to be a way to move parts between lists and possible a method
to allow the user to move parts form list to list or even delete parts for one
or more lists.
that is the basic idea. I know it would be a complex process to code, but it is
worth a thought or 2.
