Hello.

IBDAC doesn't have such functionality that allows to extract a DDL-statement for cloning a table, like TIBExtract does.
You can leave your suggestions at our UserVoice page (http://devart.uservoice.com/forums/1046 ... e-firebird), and if there are many votes for your suggestion, we will implement it.
For the time being you should use the TIBCMetaData component to retrieve metainformation for the specified table and build an appropriate DDL-statement by yourself.
