TomWS thank you SO much, this saved me!!

See attached for extension to the IAR project, took a little more effort -

Success! Here's what I did:

I copied the entire example folder (fastfs, in this case) tree to my own directory tree which was separate from the SDK.

I deleted the .emSession file in the ses folder.

I editted the .emProject file in the ses folder:

1. I modified the macros= line from:

macros="CMSIS_CONFIG_TOOL=.../../../../../../external_tools/cmsisconfig/CMSIS_Configuration_Wizard.jar;"

to:

macros="CMSIS_CONFIG_TOOL=C:/nRF/nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96/external_tools/cmsisconfig/CMSIS_Configuration_Wizard.jar;SDK=C:/nRF/nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96"

2. I changed ALL occurrences of "../../../../../.." to $(SDK)

I saved the file, opened Segger Embedded Studio, Open existing and selected my new .emProject file.

I then did a Build->Clean Solution

And then Build Solution as always. It worked without a hitch. I haven't tried debugging yet, but all the correct files were referenced so I see no reason it shouldn't work!
