Multiple MySQL installs - 2 applications [help modify my.cnf/my.ini] -

Here's my installation issue:
I have two versions of an application (I'll refer to it as "ABC"). One
version of the tool requires MySQL 4.1.x and the other requires MySQL
5.0.x, which is not an issue as I can install each of these on their
own port; 3346 and 3356 respectively.
The complex part of this problem is that ABC's executable is ABC in
both versions of the tool. In the past I could easily define ABC in the
my.ini/my.cnf by calling the client with [ABC].
Each version of ABC resides in it's own directory:
C:\Program Files\ABC1\
C:\Program Files\ABC2\
The client connection process is limited to an installation application
that asks for the following:
Server:
Username:
Password:
Database:
How can I get both of these versions to connect to their respective
MySQL installation.
Thank you in advanced!
