Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 19, 2010 #2 There is no Save As option. You will need to make a copy of your project folder. The reason is that a project is built of many files, not just a single file. Which makes it complicated to just save it under a different name. Upvote 0

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 19, 2010 #6 It will be duplicated. The package name is your application globally unique identifier. Usually it should start with your name or domain name or company name and end with the specific application name. Installing an application with the same package name as an existing application will overwrite the existing application. You can always change the package name by choosing Project - Package Name.
