Did this about 3 years ago and it worked fine for me. As you add stores list their
products files as ProductFiles of the main mall cfg file. I do not remember all the
particulars but that will get you started. I ran a store search where the main site
products file listed info concerning each store. I also ran a product search that
searched all the products files of all the stores. The site still runs but has been
handled by the owner for about 2 years now so if it is broke ... An email to them asking
for the mall cfg file and the search stuff like search.profile file :) could really get
you going quickly. :)

the site is http://tcacmall.com/
