Change the API from Android to Google Change the Name of the project to com.mgps.whatever.it's.going.to.be by selecting the project, right click on the mouse and choose 'refactor > rename'. I've not had issues, but again, I've solely been on BT 2.0 Hope it helps. Cheers! -- Smug Comments My standard (Android) workflow has been Create the workspace (or add to workspace...)
