Hello:
I wish to compare two tables' structures. I have a transaction
table, and I wish to check that an import table matches up well enough.
Well enough? All columns in the transaction table must be in
the import table and of the same type and size. If there are
additional column in the import table or if the columns are in a
different order, it does not matter.
It would be nice to able to copy each structure into an array
and then compare them using scan().
Instead, I think that I have to copy structured extended to a
temporary table -- I would prefer a cursor -- and then copy from that
to an array for each of the two tables and only then compare. That
seems rather Rube-Goldbergian.
I could be missing something. I hope I am.
What is a good way of doing this?
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
