That sounds good if it works. However ... will an add_missing_from view work if add_missing_from is off in the session where the query is executed? If not, then I don't really find this a solution. In that case, it would be better to supply a script that allows users to find add_missing_from dependant views so they can fix them. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
