Re: SELECT INTO new_table

Dominik,

Perhaps if you will be needing assistance from people who have devoted a significant part of their lives to Oracle, it might not be wise to make statements that might be interpreted as disparaging Oracle.

Perhaps you are young. Once you've been around awhile and have been forced to move your skills from one programming language to another or from one database to another, you will learn that each new item has a learning curve. But when you are leaning something new, it takes awhile to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the new product or language. That can be a frustrating time and I sympathize with you.
