I've run into a problem (actually, more than one) trying to create multiple datasets using the procedure described on p. 141 of the FAQ's in the SDT manual. The procedure involves copying the database container to the new subdirectory, opening the new copy of the DBC, and calling the Update( ) method of the MetaMgr object to create new copies of the data tables. The main problem right now is that although Update( ) does create the tables, they are backlinked to a phantom DBC instead of to the real DBC. The backlinks point to a DBC with a temporary-sounding name like TEMP1264.DBC, which I'm guessing is being created during the Update( ) but which doesn't exist either before or afterwards. In any case it's not the correct DBC name the tables are supposed to be a part of. Has anybody else run into this, and/or gotten this procedure to work?
