About the multiple databases. Ez 3.2 has a new package feature which allows classes to export and imported. Ez have used this feature to implement their demo designs, what you see when you execute the set up routine. Due to the fact that the package program is not due to be finished until Version 3.3 (no object/datatype etc support yet) they chose the multiple database option for their demo sites. This doesn't mean that anything has changed internally. Your sites can still co-exists in the same database through difference sections or different pagelayouts. Have a seach through the forums for packages and you will find discussions on that topic and what the system will eventually be capable of doing. I would suggest following the forums once 3.2 is released and you will see where the package system is going. About clean databases, there are sql files available with ez to do this. For example, inside the directory: kernel/sql/mysql/ you will find several files. 'kernel_scheme.sql' contains the ez sql tables, and 'cleandata.sql' contains fresh data to put into those tables. The same files exist for postsql. Take a look. Im not sure of how to refresh your systems on windows but you shouldn't have trouble here (im a linux person). I assume you have different pagelayouts for your different designs? Do you also have different sections for objects? If that is the case then it is relatively easy to check the section an object is in and deliver html with the correct css tag to display your content in the colour you need. Hope this helps! Paul
