Hi Michelle,
There are more than one ways to accomplish this. But I think SQL "create table" is the easiest. For an example run gendbc (do home()+"tools\gendbc\gendbc") with one of your databases. Check the code created.
Also check these :
-Create table
-Copy to
-Alter table
-Drop table
-Delete tag
etc
BTW you could also use "modify structure" on runtime if have exclusive access.
