MySQL copy table

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
I'm trying to execute a MySQL COPY TABLE command, and can't figure out how to do this through an Active Record class. It doesn't really fall under Selecting, Inserting, Updating, or Deleting.

Is this possible? I've been reading the Active Record Class page at http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...ecord.html, and googling around, but nothing seems to pop up.

Anything along the lines of $this->db->do or $this->db->execute would be great; something that lets me execute an arbitrary SQL query. Anyone have ideas?

Thanks =)
