Cut and Paste Tables

Can I cut and paste table from one Filemaker database to another?  I found the following instructions but I don't see how to click on "copy" or "paste".  I'm using FileMaker Pro version 12.

To copy table schema:

 

1.
Open the database file that contains the table you want to copy.
 

 

2.
Choose File menu > Manage > Database > Tables tab.
 

 

3.
Select the table you want to copy.
 

 

4.
Click Copy.
 

 

5.
Open the database file where you want to paste the table.
 

 

6.
Choose File menu > Manage > Database > Tables tab.
 

 

7.
Click Paste.

    I think the ability to copy & paste tables is a feature of FileMaker Pro Advanced — FileMaker Pro doesn't give you that option.

    Without the Advanced version, you can "copy" a table by importing it and selecting [New Table] as the target.
