My understanding of the instructions was that you actually have to create multiple installations of AB into different folders since the file that stores the data folder information resides in AB folder. So, you could have AB(Data1) and AB(Data2) separate folders each using a different database. Then, create shortcuts one starting in AB(Data1) folder, and the other in AB(Data2) folder. If you do not separate instances of AB one will overwrite settings of the other. Maybe it is backwards compatibility issues that prevent TJ from modifying AB to accept command line options.
