Hi All
I have a database which is listed in my iidatabase catalog, but it isn't on=
the disk system. There is no trace of this database whatsoever under any l= ocation.
I could remove it from the catalogs using an sql iidbdb +Y connection. But =
I was wondering if it was possible to copy the aaaaaaaa.ext from another da= tabase , edit it to reflect the database of interest, rebuild a stub config=
file from that and then hopefully perform the destroydb that we have all c= ome to know and love.
I ask this as I'm vaguely sure I saw something somewhere that suggested tha=
t it was possible to rebuild/edit a config file using the .ext file. Can an= yone shed light on that?

PS. The database was created as a test of using a readonly database as a ta= rget from a distributed database. The test did not return the database to r= eadwrite status before attempting the destroydb.
