Hi,
I want to copy several columns of a source table from db1 to db2, and
create the target table and rename the columns in the process.
Is that possible in PostgresQL? If so, an example or url for such a
command /script would be appreciated...
TIA

Be quiet... it is not a db problem: your shell interprets ' characters
before sending them to psql so your query becomes
UPDATE users SET pin=12345 WHERE login=admin;
and column admin (not the literal 'admin') doesn't really exist!
Try this:
su - postgres -c psql --dbname database --command

Ignoring the db part for now, you can do the first part of your request
like this:

the problem is that the quotes round 'admin' are needed to tell psql
that this is a value - but i have no idea how to create the quotes

Is there a way to insert a record only if a certain
condition is met?
Something like:
insert into employee values('lastname','firstname',8) where
(condition here.. select sum(ofsomething) from xx where sum(ofsomething)0 )
Is this possible at all with just plain SQL?
