Let's just say that I've very surprised, if not shocked, at the kinds of things I've seen in released code.

Indeed, I've taken the approach of using parser driven tools to solve problems like this, but the problem is harder than you might think.

Nabikus (shr),   I beleive that using an input transform would be the way to just enter desired fields.  BUT, some fields are required.  You would either have to write custom code to fill these in for you, or modify the database to make them not be required.  But as you pointed out, if applications

It is not wise to remove tables and fields unless you are really sure that you have also removed all the references to them. However, unlike relational databases that have fixed, pre allocated blocks for storage, Cache does not pre-allocate storage, and if a field is not used, it does not take spac
