SharedObjects - path on local machine

Ive developed two flash-apps that are virtually identical (its a e-learning-platform) that you run on the same local machine.

I dont want to change the names for all the SharedObjects that I have in the applications, so they are the same. And they get stored in root (because they are accessed from multiple swf-files), using the code (for instance):

_global.gl_TextPath = SharedObject.getLocal(“gl_TextPath”, “/”);

The last “/” makes sure the gl_TextPath-variable gets stored in root.

The problem is that the two applications share the same shared objects with this solution, since they are called the same and stored in the same place.

So Id like to make two different directories in root so I can keep the same name for both applications´ shared objects.

But the code that I thought would solve this doesnt work. I tried these 4 solutions:
_global.gl_TextPath = SharedObject.getLocal(“gl_TextPath”, “/app1”);
_global.gl_TextPath = SharedObject.getLocal(“gl_TextPath”, “/app1/”);
_global.gl_TextPath = SharedObject.getLocal(“gl_TextPath”, “app1/”);
_global.gl_TextPath = SharedObject.getLocal(“gl_TextPath”, “app1”);
But none works.

How can I put them in different folders?
