BTW, 

For 2.0 (C++ for now of course) we already have implement

    CreateSnapShoot(
        I_Table_Ptr  inSourceTable,
        String       inName,
        bool         inTemporary,
        EStorageType inStorageType  // Disk, RAM,
    )


This functions will accept as Tables, so Cursors.


----------
Question.

I wonder how you image this work with 2.0?

Assume you have get first Cursor  'curs1'

You have display it.

Now user type some search string.
You want to do search on curs1 and you get curs2, yes?
    
You still keep cursor1 live.

If user change something in search field, you again do search on curs1
And get new cursor 3, yes?
