'm using Eclipse Indigo on Win XP. How do I create a dynamic web project from existing Java source and web folders? I went to File -> New -> Project, and selected "Dynamic Web Project." In the "New Dynamic Web Project" dialog, when I selected my existing folder location, I got the error

C:\Documents and Settings\E18538\workspace\cit_pplus_kickoff overlaps the location of another project: 'cit_pplus_kickoff'

Here is the dialog -- http://screencast.com/t/Q9VgQKXQ . How do I create a dynamic web project from existing source? Note that there is no .project file, only the folders

src/java
src/java/com
...
src/web
src/web/WEB-INF
src/web/images
...

Thanks - Dave
