uuid duplicated

Good Cspro Team
When renaming a * .csdb file, that is, the key is changed, the files open perfectly with the applications, but when we want to concatenate the files we cannot do it, because it indicates that there are duplicate cases and not because of the key, but by the uuid that is generated when creating the * .csdb file.
When renaming or changing the key, the uuid is not modified.
How could I change the uuid of a file.
Thanks in advance

Try exporting the CSDB file to a DAT. Then use the reformat data tool to go from a DAT back to a CSDB. This will recreate each UUID and they'll be unique.

It sounds like you understand the issue. Just to be clear though, you'll generally want the application to create the cases on demand. You don't want to copy a CSDB with "template" cases and deploy them to devices where the application just modifies them.
