If you want to make another store without burying your folders deeper, you can simply make another folder Scholars2 in your WebSTAR folder. WebCatalog is smart enough to look in that folder if you put tepmlates inside there. No need to put the CGI, or prefs or anything like that in there. Just the templates you need for your second storefront.Notice how GeneralStore and Classifieds folders are completely self-contained -- they work just find if you drag them outside of WebCatalog's folder and put them at the root of your web server. That's why ACTIONs are so cool.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
