Thanks for the answer - now I am really curious:
The DBMS is a general engine.
But everyone of us must painfully (?) design tables and views that
differ from one application to another?
If i have to design table using the ER model for - lets say a CRM - the
design will be completely different from the table set I have to build
for another application e.g. hardware inventory.
I nearly can believe that noone has tried to build a multi purpose table/view set which - once generated - does not need to be redesigned for any change of usage. On the level of business management some ideas exist for a company-wide database. However on a technical base I did not find any information about this idea - or any descriptions of people how has tried it. Still looking forward...
