Example

The following example creates two databases named mydbc1 and mydbc2, and a table named table1. The table is added to mydbc1 when it is created. The table is then closed and removed from mydbc1. ADD TABLE is then used to add the table to mydbc2. RENAME TABLE is used to change the name of the table from table1 to table2.

CREATE DATABASE mydbc1
CREATE DATABASE mydbc2
SET DATABASE TO mydbc1
CREATE TABLE table1 (cField1 C(10), n N(10))  && Adds table to mydbc1
CLOSE TABLES     && A table must be closed to remove it from a database
