Merge tables with where clause?

Merge tables with where clause?

am 24.10.2006 02:45:45 von Administrator

I was wondering if there is a way to create a merge table using where
clauses for the underlying tables. I have a date column in all tables
and would like to have it so that I could just inset say the last weeks
worth of data into the merge or would that be pointless.

I think I answered my own question.Since merge just maps the tables it
wouldn't help. What I was wanting was to maybe create a quick merge
that did not have the entire table in it. I did notice a bug though in
the merge which I will submit. I have a merge table and when I do a
select on the subject column which is a text type and use a like in the
where like this - select * from all where subject like 'A%' - I get no
results. It should give me all subjects starting with A. I can do
this on the actual table and it is fine.
