hello
in our company we often need to copy one table /or insert few rows from one database server to another database server. For this i use this SQL command.
COPY FROM USER-NAME/PASSWORD@DATABASE-1 TO USER/PASSWORD@DATABASE-2 CREATE TABLE XYZ USING SELECT * FROM ABC.
my problem is ,this command not working in D2K(forms 5,6i), or in backend procedure. Is there any way to use this command to use through forms/ backend procedure so that we can avoid manual process.

What i want is " a way to create/insert/append one table from
server/database1 to another database/server." from front hand (via forms/backend procedure).

IS IT POSSIBLE??

i am using oracle 8i + d2k 6i

thanks

COPY is an SQL*Plus (the command line tool) command, not SQL (the language).

it may be sql* plus or any thing it doesn't matter. i just want to ask ," a way to create a table from one database-server to another remote database server via front hand- D2k forms.
is it possible. (i give a example of copy command just bcoz by the use of that command it is possible via backend, not front hand)

Use the dbms_sql package. Good examples can be found in "PL/SQL, Packages and Types Reference, 10g Release 1 (10.1), Part No. B10802-01 - search for it on the Oracle website by part number.

See page 90-11

Build a dynamic 'insert'.
