Hi Rick, and thanks for your input. > You might want to take a look at the optional foreignViews tool, which can > be useful for data migration projects like yours: > http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.10/tools/rtoolsoptforeignviews.html. You > can create and populate a Derby table from an external table by following > the instructions for loading the foreignViews tool and then issuing > statements like the following: > > -- create the local Derby table > create table S1.T1 as select * from XYZ_S1.T1 with no data; > insert into S1.T1 select * from XYZ_S1.T1; I had a quick look at this - launch it from within ij>! I didn't construct my URL properly and got a suitable error message. Just wondering - how will this cope with ENUM types? Tinytext? Mediumtext? In the meantime, I've about 50% of a tool which will get me to where I want - very crude, but it should cover the basics - I'll have a couple of weeks after Thursday and might be able to thrash out something usable. I will experiment with what you've showed me - again after Thursday. I'm Setting Mediumtext and Longtext to BLOB - hope this is OK? Thanks again and rgs, Paul... > -Rick -- lineh...@tcd.ie Mob: 00 353 86 864 5772
