like this?

COPY STRUCTURE EXTENDED to TabXYZ
sele cur1.* from TabXYZ as Cur1 into array aDbfStruct where FIELD_LEN=0
use in TabXYZ
dele TabXYZ.*

and

COPY STRUCTURE EXTENDED to TabXYZ
dele from TabXYZ where FIELD_LEN=0
create newtable from TabXYZ
use in TabXYZ
dele TabXYZ.*

should work w/o array
