Hi Peter, I have not implemented this, but I'm contemplating it for a component that would need to initially create some table structure in the host component. If you want to export/import a subset of tables, it seems not too hard to export the XML structure and then parse it to create a new XML file with just the parts you want. So if I only want 3 tables out of 100, the new XML file would just have those three tables and the relations between them.
Not worth it if this is a one off transfer, but it seems like something that could be generalized if needed more than once.
