Allow DVM Studio to prompt for workspace at startup

Typically, Eclipse-based products will prompt the user for a workspace when the application is launched. DVM Studio, however, uses or creates dvm_workspace automatically. If a user wants to test a new version of Studio without the risk of the workspace being corrupted or modified to the point where they cannot revert it back the prior version, they must manually locate the default workspace and rename the file before launching Studio.

    Hey Doug, Dale has figured out a solution that SF is happy with and so is Rocket:

    We are going to Reopen this and move forward with an Enhancement.

    Dale has created a Setup.bat file (I will attach to this case) that can be used that will:

    1) Ask you if you want to have the Workspace prompt on starting the Studio.

    2) If you say yes then it will build the Launch.bat file accordingly so that it prompts you for a Workspace on startup.

    Sincerely
    Jeff Lutzow

    This can be accomplished by removing the "-Data" from the Launch.bat file. You will then be prompted for a Workspace.
