Hi Brian,

Are you suggesting I create a TableShare on the stack whenever I need  
it?

I don't think this would work because AFAIK I have to call  
open_table_def(), which loads the table definition. So calling this  
each time I want to copy data in and out of the row would be too slow.

What may work is to use a TableShare object instead of a Table object.

Question is, can I do something like:

share = new TableShare();

share->init(db_name, 0, name, path);

error = open_table_def(&thd, *ident, share);

and then later simply:

delete share;

to remove.
