Re: Disabling Constraints in a Schema!..??

Spool the output of thie sql and then run the spooled file: select 'alter table schema_name.'||table_name||' disable constraint '||constraint_name||';'
from dba_constraints
where owner='schema_name'
and CONSTRAINT_TYPE in ('R','P','U') This line is optional.

This will disable the constraints in schema_name of choice. You can enable all of the constraints by changing disable to enable. You can change disable to drop to drop all constraints.

I got this from a lister on one of the lists. It works very well.

HTH,
Ruth
