Purpose

Unlinks a table which was downloaded and linked from a remote database with the Server Link Table statement. You can issue this statement from the MapBasic window in MapInfo Pro.

Syntax

Unlink TableName

TableName is the name of an open MapInfo linked table.

Description

Unlinking a table removes the link to the remote database. This statement does not work if edits are pending (in other words, the user must first commit or rollback). All metadata associated with the table linkage is removed. Fields that were marked non-editable are now editable. The end product is a normal MapInfo base table.

Example

Unlink "City_1k"
