OUTPUT myfile.all
UNLOAD ALL FOR mytable
OUTPUT SCREEN

This will output the entire table structure and data.
Be advised there is a line that I normally need to remove before 
inputting into the new database because you get a second version 
of the old database with one table.

It's located about 12 lines down in the file you just created
CREATE SCHEMA AUTHOR mydatabase PUBLIC

rem that line out and you should be good to go.
