Unlinking tables in JSL

Maybe I'm just slow today, but I can't figure this out. All I want to do is create a summary table (or some sort of linked table) and close the original table without closing the linked table. Any ideas?

Example:

dt = New Table( "beer",
Add Rows( 4 ),
New Column( "Group",
Character,
Nominal,
Set Values( {"dark lager", "dark lager", "garbage", "garbage"} )
),
New Column( "Beer",
Character,
Nominal,
Set Values(
{"schwarzbier", "munich dunkel", "light american lager", "malt liquor"}
)
),
Set Row States( [0, 0, 1, 0] )
);

bob = dt << Summary( Group( :Group ) );

close(dt,no save);

Re: Unlinking tables in JSL

Never mind. I figured it out. I was searching for "unlink" in the Scripting Guide. Searching for "Link" led me to it eventually.

By default, a summary table is linked to the original data table. If you want to produce a summary that is not linked to the original data table, add this option to your Summary message:

summDt << Summary( Group( col ), Mean( :height ),
Link to original data table( 0 )
);

Re: Unlinking tables in JSL

Looks like this is a new function for JMP 9, which I use most of the time. I have a couple scripts I share with JMP 8 users. Anyone know how to do it in JMP 8?
