How do I create a new database using the custom tables created by me in another database?

I cannot seem to find a 'duplicate' or 'copy' function.

    When you open the app or login to the website you will see your DBs, if you hover over the top right corner of the DB icon you will see a drop arrow. If you click on that you will see the option to duplicate your DB.

    Sadly there is no way to move tables between DBs.

     

    1) You will have to manually recreate the tables

     

    or

     

    2) Duplicate an empty testbed DB and then import the data from production

    If you are using the native application you can share the tables when importing.  This only works on the native app in Mac though.

    I am afraid I don't quite follow you Nick. What do you mean share when importing?

    Ok got it... It's in the top view of the database. Import Data. And then just choose. One must be in the db top view. Thanks Nick!

    Looks like two Nick's involved in this one!  The other Nick needs the credit.
