Phil,
         This is only half a solution, but it is better than nothing, right?<g>

create table newtable select * from oldtable limit 0;

This will create a newtable with the same columns as oldtable and newtable 
will be empty.
Alas, the index definitions are not copied over so that will have to be 
done manually or someone else can offer a suggestion. I was thinking of 
writing a PHP function to do it. It's not that difficult (I think?!).

Mike
