Hi...I was wondering what the general opnion of my problem below muight be.
I had just finished creating and population our new db for 2003/2004, when
the client contacts me with some changes he needs fro this year. When I
look into his requiremts, I see the only way I can complete the task is by
adding a new field to the ITEMS tablle. But that's ok, I think, I can use
an ALTER statement to update the table in sqlplus and update the ERD in
designer later.
I tell my boss what I planned to to do and he says that I am not allowed to
do that I have to:
- Exoport the data from the current DB.
2 Drop the schema
- Update design and generate the DDL
- Create new scehema and run the DDL
- Import the data.
My question is: is this the "way to do it " or is he just being
dificult?
Mny thanks for any advice!
