[ADMB Users] Reading More than 1 Data File with ADMB-IDE

[CHRIS GRANDIN]

I figured that block (model17.cpp) was for cases where the user had changed the name on purpose, in which case you would not need to see a warning or message.  If the datafile was missing altogether I think model7.cpp displays a message.  I need to test this out.. Or if anyone would like to help, go ahead and build revision 1115

Thanks, Chris. I was looking at a similar message in model7.cpp (not 
seventeen) that remains unchanged.

Do we prefer no message to a warning?
