Thanks, Erne
I totally overlooked f.CopyFileTo.
The only 'problem' with this solution is that you have to keep a 
reference alive to the original file.
I tried db.Create(newFile), but that obviously only creates an empty 
database.
The question then is, how to fill this new file with the current data.

I need to write those data to the new file, but which function should I 
use and which parameters?
Or am I totally dense here?

Thanks again,
