in a database agnostic perspective, views and tables are the same thing.

Consider, your front end using MySQL (has no views) can query, insert, update table FOO

Now you change the back end and decide FOO must be implemented as a view. If it is IT MUST BE AN UPDATABLE VIEW, or it really is not equivalent.

If you really want a generic opinion, ask your questions in comp.databases
Do you really expect generic answers in an ORACLE specific newsgroup??

Not trying to be mean, just saying you went down the wrong aisle in the library know as newsgroups. Received on Tue Apr 19 2005 - 15:58:40 CDT
