Graham, 
 
I would prefer to have a single installation and 
use it with multple data bases as you suggest... however I ran into 
problems earlier doing that. That was some time ago that I had to switch to 
multiple databases... perhaps before certain changes were made that make the 
operation of a single installation using multiple instances 
practiclal.
 
I know that many changes have been made over time 
to the preferences and parameters controlling each data base setting have been 
moved to the individual data base. The problem earlier was that parameters 
relating to databases were common and part of preferences, thus all databases 
had one set of parameters (such as number of bars)... which was a 
pain...
 
Also I beleive that even with current version, a 
single installation would have a single set of symbols. Broker files reflecting 
a unique set of setting for a particular application (EOD, Real Time etc). Is 
that nor correct?
 
Do you (or anyone else) currently use a single 
installation with multiple instances without any complications???
 
Thanks

  Why do you need multiple installations of AB on one computer
  You can just have the one installation and use different databases. AB 
  can be opened many times from one installation and have separate database for 
  each occurence.

    Hello,
     
    Either do not use multiple installations or TURN OFF 
    auto-save of layouts (Tools->Prefs->Misc).

      I am having problems with multpile 
      installations getting mixed up.
       
      When I open one installation, I find the 
      layout from another installation have been copied into it.
       
      Example: 
       
      1. Open Tick data base and see layouts from 
      Time (1 min) or EOD data base.
       
      2. I run scripts via OLE on EOD data base, 
      and results show up in RT installation.
       
      How can we keep these from crossing 
      over?
       
       
      (I think there was a recent related 
      discussion, but can not find it)
