Alais Shopping Cart Directory

texte = Is it possible to make an alias of a shopping cart folder (and order folder) from one virtual store, and get it to work with a second virtual store? My path is something like HardDrive:Webstar:store1 and HardDrive:Webstar:store2 . This is in reality the same company having a main catalog store and an outlet center, with different domains (for various reasons) I got them to share the same product database by aliasing it (which is VERY cool, I had gone to considerable effort in the past to get databases referenced from subdirectories, and sub-sub directories, that practice is long over, just plop a alias of the database in the same directory (on the Mac, anyway.)) Now I need them to share the same carts. I can do this by writing a lot of convoluted path statements any time I have to reference the cart, but that doesn't strike me as being the right way to do it. Brian B.
