Hello every one i need some info about how to make test site for vb4 on same domain . and also want know that i have to buy a new licence for it or just to make a new folder on server how i can make plz help me out thanks in advance

Copy paste your current folder into another folder.
For example, if your forums is www.domain.com/forums; copy it to www.domain.com/test
Create a new database in your Control Panel so that if you make any database changes, it won't affect your current database.

Also make sure your test site is password protected as it shouldn't be accessed by the general public. And no, you don't need a new licence for that.

Thanks i got it but how i can use mods which i allready installed on my accting site and how i can use new deta base with that folder how i have to setup that database

What control panel are you using?
And its 'database', not 'deta base'.
