July 29, 200322 yr Hi everyone! I want to copy (in a script) all records (0 - many) from a database (called main) where a specific field ("id") matches a number (say 7) to a different database (called temp). The temp database is empty but with fields defined. How? Is there another way than doin it record by record? /Tobias
July 29, 200322 yr There's a simpler way -- perform a find in the original file, then import the records into the new file. It'll only import the found set.
July 29, 200322 yr obviously (or maybe not, cos it took me a while to figure this out) you have to import the found set _into_ the new/empty/destination database, which is easily done with external scripting...as opposed to _exporting_ the records _from_ the first database. it'll just create a new database with only the fields you export. i know there is one, but i can't see the usefulness of this (export)feature.
