 Thanks for that, Lex,

 Simple reason really - I don't have a test db available right now!
 Although I agree absolutely that this is the preferred way. I was
 thinking of something like DataBee, but even that cannot extract
 metadata if there is data present in the dmp file.
 
 Plan B however does include creating one...
