Hi!

What would be the best way to restrict users' access to certain columns of a table?

e.g. User1 owns a table and want to grant user2 the right to update only certain columns in that table. What would be the best way to implement this?

Using a view and granting user2 update rights on the view?

This is 9.2 on Solaris.

Thanks,
Helmut
