I need to unlink two databases.

Hello everyone, I need to unlink duplicate databases from each other and I don't want to have to delete any tables. I am planning on using the duplicate database as a training tool for new employees so they can beat it to death without it making any changes to the live db. The two db's reside on different server drives and are the backend to a software program called GoldMine. Can anyone tell me how to do unlink the dbs without deleting tables?

Thanks everyone.

Hi!

I hope I have understood correctly. One database is linked to the tables in the other database. If that is correct, then on the tables tab of the linked database, the icons represent links and not tables. If you just delete them, you will not affect the tables in the other database.
