Creating new project based on an existing one

Hi to all
How do I create a new project based on an existing one? Background: We need to have public access (without log-in) to have users adding new records into the database. However, the full management (list, view,edit,delete) has to be under password security. As far as I understand I have to create a new project with setting all formatting etc. again.
Is there a simpler method I might have overlooked?
thanks for input

You can open exisitng project in ASPRunner and save it under different name.
Also you can simply create a copy of ASPRunner's project file (*.aspr).

This would overwrite my existing build of .asp pages for users having public access.
I am looking for a method to use an existing project but creating a different set of .asp pages.

I am trying to do the same thing. How would you get the second set of pages to access the same databse that the first set of asp pages?

If you need to run this application on the remote Web server I would recommend to put your database file outside WWWROOT folder and modify both connection strings accordingly.
Please check this thread for more info on adjusting connection string.

OK, well right now my database is stored \\www.domain_name.com\output\db\database.mdb
the first set of asp pages work perfectly with the current database location.
If i create a second set of asp pages how would i get the _add.asp file to dump into the above database

I figured it out! <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=reply&id=2692&image=1&table=forumreplies' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' /> It took creating a new user id "guest" and password "guest" and then creating a second set of asp pages to access the same database. After that I used:
http:\\www.mydomain.com\....\login.asp?userid=guest%password=guest
to pass the default parameters to the login fields. Then to issue the submit command I changed the html body tag to read:
<body bgcolor=white onLoad="java script:document.forms[0].submit()">
Hope this helps someone!
