After a period away from SETI I downloaded BOINC and attached SETI, everything was working fine including Boinclogx and Map View.  Then I decided to also run the Climate Change Experiment.  I had to download the Screensaver software and during installation it closed the BOINC manager.  When BOINC manager re-launched it was running as BOINC manager for BBC Climate Change Experiment and no SETI was attached.  I looked at original program files for BOINC and boinc.exe was no longer in it although all sah files and data was there.  I re-attached SETI to BOINC Manager for Climate Change, it downloaded a work unit and started number crunching then I altered the path in Boinclogx to point to the new program.  All's well, but, what about the work units in the old BOINC manager?  Can I move them into the BBC BOINC manager so as to continue the last one I was working on and if so what files do I move altogether or have I lost that one?

This is really annoying that the BBC had its own BOINC manager which is virtually the same except for its branding and installation into a different named folder.  Beware anyone who tries to run this one.
