Re: Synchronizing 2 tables in same database -how ?

Thanks Jonathan !

IŽll give it a try, I am eeger to see how long the create will take.

One question though, are there someway to exclude this clone table from being backed up ? Since its rather large table and there is no need to recover it in case of a database crash. We use RMAN as backup technique.

Thanks.
