I had written a database program for storing my DVDs. Wanting another app for storing an E-Book collection, I used a copy of the DVD one and changed the filenames, etc.. When I compile it it overwrites my DVD lister. The .b4a files, the db files and the Application Label all have different names. What must I change to keep this from overwriting?

[added later] The following post from alwaysbusy gave me the answer. Thanks always!

Use 2 different folders, not just another b4a file in the same (ran into this at the very first beginning)

Also a big thanks from me. I am very new to B4A programming and I had two versions of the same app and I wanted both of them on screen at the same time, however they kept overwriting each other and then I read your post on what to do and it works perfectly. Again, thanks a lot.
