Multiple copies of a database

I have created a database comprised of about ten different files each of which is related to one or more other files through relationships as well as scripts. This database is to be copied and used for a multitude of different projects. I would like to give each file in a project's database a unique name, specific to the project, in order to avoid cross-referencing of relationships and scripts.

The problem is that once a file name is changed, the relationships and scripts do not work. The obvious solution is to update each relationship and script once new file names have been established but this is time consuming considering the quantity of relationships and scripts that exist within the database. Is there a simple solution?

I have this same situation with one of my clients. They have 20-40 active projects each with a copy of a 25 file set. I'd purchase FM Developer. It has a tool that allows you to renames files and automatically reconnects them (FM 5 only). -bd
