---------------

      To bring your homework back to school, perform the same export and
      import procedure. Note that you cannot import an object into a
      folder that has an existing object with the same id.  Therefore,
      when you bring your homework back to school, you'll need to import
      it into a folder that doesn't already have a *homeWork* folder in
      it. Then, you'll need to delete your old *homeWork* folder and copy
      the newly imported one into its place.

         ... or delete the old homeWork first and import the new one directly into the folder you want it in.  :)

         Never hurts to keep the older version until you're sure the newer one works. This seems like a "best
         practices" issue.
