hi,

i need some help with code. can anyone post an example or some code.

what i need:

lets say i made a database name DATA_TEMP and it contain tables without records but all the fields and validation rules are set.

i want to create a form, on which when the user loads it, it gives 2 options:

1.) create new database
2.) open saved database

now, when we choose create new database -- i want to open the DATA_TEMP, and save it as ______ (the user can choose and click save). this then creates the new database and doesn't alter the template DATA_TEMP.

on open saved database, we can browse and open the ones we saved.


the reason for this is that i have a database in which there are a set number of records, and each year the user needs to create a new database or delete the records from his older version. im not sure if this clear.

thanks
