OK. > > Note that you only need to .dump/.read the table(s) you want to alter. Well, I don't think it's true. 1. When I execute "CREATE TABLE" with the table name that already exists wouldn't I get an error message? 2. If I drop this table first I will get an error about the key constraint as the table holds primary key for couple of tables. Am I right?
