This is a dumb situation I caused myself, but wonder if there is an easy way out. I have two versions of a database which has one table that has gotten out of synch with some additional fields and some additional data.

Since I have FMP8 advanced it allows me to import the entire table. I tried to do that and then reset the relationship to it, but the fields in the layouts seemed to require that I change each field one by one by hand to the new table. I can import the new data, but then I have to re-created the new fields by hand.

I think there must be a better way to do this, but don't know what it is. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Instead of adding a relationship to the new table, just change the old table occurences' source to use the new local table.
