Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: CREATE ORDERED TABLE
Why would you want to do this? The first row you insert into this table
later will put it out of order anyway. If you're thinking that it will
speed access time - you might be right if you need to do a full table scan
on the one column .... but then again, why not create an index?
