Hi Bill,

When you run makecat you should be given the option of installing test
data.  Just answer no to that question and you'll end up with a skeleton
install.  Another way is (assuming you are using an sql database) is to
just delete from the tables, all data you do not want.  something like 

delete from userdb
delete from products
delete from options
delete from transactions
delete from orderline
delete from merchandising
delete from area
delete from cat
delete from pricing
delete from affiliate
delete from inventory

I may have missed a few tables, but that gives you an idea.  You
probably want to keep country and state.
