The rest of the database would have been updated (as in a new version with
some fix or new feature), so it is not practical to just copy the file.
What I want to do is to import the old tables into the new database, getting
their relationships too. I know I can do this with a manual File --> Get
external data --> import, but I am trying to do it without the user needing
to go to the database window.

I can create each relationship in code separately, but I seem to remember
that if I, say, ask for Attributes = dbRelationUpdateCascade +
dbRelationDeleteCascade and that relationship fails because someone has
managed to delete records such that the referential integrity is destroyed,
then no relationship is formed at all. In this case, I would need a simple
relationship without referential integrity to be created. But, because the
database is not with me, but out on a site somewhere, I have no way of
checking if the referential integrity failed or not. Is there a simple way
of in code, creating a normal relationship if referential integrity fails?

It sounds as if you don't have a split frontend-backend database. If
you did, there would never be any "new features", etc. in the
back-end, and all you have to do is provide the users with a new
front-end.
