Database Duplication Script?

I'm trying to make a copy of a database, and don't want to have to download it and re-upload it (as it's a huge database). Is there a script where I can enter the source database, then have it copy the tables, etc. to the new database?

What sort of database is it?

If it's MS SQL, you can use Enterprise Manager to simply export the entire database into a new one.

No. It's a MySQL database. (If it helps, I have PhpMyAdmin and cPanel on the server)

phpMyAdmin allows you to do this. You need to first select your database, then click the operations tab and look for the section entitled "Copy database to:". Enter the new database name and away you go.

If you need to copy your database to a different server, then you'll need to first export it with phpMyAdmin and import into the new server.

Wow, I feel like an idiot (it's that simple). I decided to stay with IPB though, it's still not worth moving to PhpBB just for a cool skin.
