Yes, I believe I even added this to VFP7.0 Wish List Document here while ago, but I doubt, it was implemented.

Your idea about copy structure sounds right. Actually, originally I was thinking about free tables, where we can use another technique, but your technique is universal. Well, if I can overcome my laziness, I'd probably write this utility this or next weekend.

Thanks for the idea.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
