|
hTable (I) |
Handle of table or cursor to copy. |

The table created does not contain records, but has field structure identical to the original table. Indexes are not copied by AdsCopyTableStructure. The empty table must be opened by a call to AdsOpenTable to be manipulated.
When copying a VFP table structure with this API, long field names will not be preserved. The resulting table from this API is a free table, and a data dictionary is required to store long field names for VFP tables. If the source table is in a data dictionary and has long field names, then the resulting DBF will have names shortened to 10 characters.
