Dustin,

Give them a creator code which matches an installed application -- ideally
yours.  That what the "creator ID" is for.  It identifies the *application*
which created the database, not the programmer.  Thus the application launcher
groups together all databases with the same "creator ID", and treats them as a
unit for purposes of both info and delete from the main menu.

(Note: When you beam, only the application is beamed, not the databases.  Using
third-party beam tools you can beam individual files, and see information on
each file beyond that shown by the default info option.)
