Hint Details:

For those who would like to be able to do an all in one database unload and reload from the command line, here it is:

 

dbunload -v -c "UID=***;PWD=***;DBF=C:\SourceDB\spaceman.db" -an "C:\TargetDB\spaceman.db"

Remember to change the source and target DBs appropriately and also to replace the two '***' with a valid Database (not Space Manager) Username and Password.
