This table still appears in a source forum that I'm using.

'Source forum'? What do you mean?

'Source forum'? What do you mean?
When using the ImpEx program, there is a 'source' forum where data is collected from a database and a 'destination' forum where data is inputed into a database. My 'source' database is still in use and was just curious why the table was created there rather then in the destination database. I was curious if there is any need for that table in the database.

Impex does not do anything to the source database. My understanding is that only reads that data, it never writes to that database. I have no idea why that table would appear on the source database. You may have to wait until Jerry is available to answer this. Sorry.

I was under the same impression which is why I was asking... not sure how that table got there. I'll wait for Jerry, thnx. :)

The only way it can be in the source, is it the source is a result of a import itself.

Unless you are debugging an import you can remove the table anyway.
