I don't quite understand how multiple forums are created.
The config.asp code sets strTablePrefix = "FORUM_"
strMemberTablePrefix = "FORUM_"
strFilterTablePrefix = "FORUM_"
which is the prefix to the db tables for that forum.
Creating a new set of tables with the 'New' forum name is no problem, but the question is...how do I reference them in config.asp as there is only one varialbe set to do this?

I have 5 forums to set up, which should be displayed on the opening forum.asp.

You want to create multiple forums, or multiple boards? The whole Snitz is a board, and we do have some forums (Help: General, Help: Ms SQL). For such a setup you don't need to mess with table prefixes.

Yes. I want to be able to have several forums on the board.
ie
Forum_GRS (Marketing)
Forum_SLS (Sales)
Forum_OVR (Overseas)
All forums are shown on the initial page, them selected to contain it's own Q&A area. (Like your page does)

How do I set up a new Forum?
