Re: sql.bsq

Well database creation comes up fairly regularly where I work. Every once in awhile I have to do one manually, but it takes considerably longer than using the GUI. The hours in a day always seem slightly too few, and there are many things I'd prefer to do with them than manually create databases. To each his own.
