Hi,

I need to copy an existing application with cdt and data source in the same server environment with a different application name. Kindly let me know the best practice for this and the easiest way of doing this. I also need to create a copy of the table structures used in the DB.

Thanks in advance,

Swetha.

There is no best practice as there is no supported way of doing this.

It might be useful to clarify that you mean there's no automated way of doing it - but I'd suggest that at least there *is* a "supported" way of doing it, which is "the manual way", which (depending on the size of the original application) would most likely be long and painful. But if it were (for the sake of argument) just a demo app with 2 forms and 1 table with 1 CDT, then it could be banged out in maybe 10 minutes.
