Hi Everybody

Now it is my turn to ask a question to MI-L:

I have a table, which is mappable. What is the most efficient and elegant
way in MB to create a copy of it, but without the map-part ?

Basically I want to avoid copying a very big MAP+ID file, which I may not
need in the next step of my calculations, where I just need the TAB+DAT
file.

This is what I want, but it is too slow:
Commit table "table1" as table2
open table2
drop map table2

Other options include
1) Export to DBF format and then register the DBF
2) Temporarily rename the MAP+ID file of table1, before commiting
3) Do a straight filecopy of table1.tab+table1.dat, but the tabular data
could be in a whole different format (xls etc.)

Isn't there a simple and elegant solution ?

Regards
Uffe
