   Thanks for the quick reply, Tom.  I appreciate that.

   I've looked at this, and it seems to be on the same level as a quick
DROP/CREATE.  Is there no way to "mirror" a table structure in real time?

CREATE TABLE test_bob AS ( SELECT * FROM bob WHERE '1' = '2' );

   .. appears to also do what I want, but I'd like to be able to do this
without DROP/CREATE (just because I'm anal, no other real reason).  :)

Thoughts?
