Copying one table to another
Say I have 2 tables with the exact same formatting (fields, values, etc.) Is there an easy way to dump the contents of one table to the other in SQL rather than outputting the one to a .txt or .sql and inputing it into the other table?

Ed, You could use the insert .. select syntax.
