Re: Making a copy of the current database using code

Thanks for the reply. It is not a backup that I am trying to create,
it will will eventually become a seperate database that users will
access. The purpose of my database is somewhat complex...I am creating
a database that provides a simple and easy way for people to load their
data into it and actually create a new database for them (all for the
same purpose mind you, but different data). I thought the best way to
go about this was to have them load the data required into this main
database and then copy the database with a new name. I originally
planned to have a blank database open and just export the data into it
but I thought this would be an easier solution. Probably not though.

Sorry for the new topic line. It won't let me respond normally.

You still haven't told us if this is a BE/FE situation, because that
will determine the type of response we can offer, and allow us to
indicate pitfalls to watch for.
