This may be 'working as designed' but it is frustrating. Online Help
states that the copy() method of UpdateSet() will "When using a table
name as a destination, that table is created, or overwritten if it
already exists."

A problem is that it only creates the .dbf and, if exists, the .dbt.
The production index (.mdx) file is not created. The online Help
statement implies that the table, not select components, is created.

Is this 'working as designed' or a flaw in the method?
