Hi all,
I have a situation where I need to extract all the columns except for one.
What is the best way to do it
Any input is appreciated
Cheers and warm regards

Hi, it depends on how many columns are involved..
If 2 then its easy, if 200 then I would create a view
with the 199 I wanted ( at least I only had to type them once or
you could use a query on USER_TAB_COLUMNS ( ALL_ or DBA_)
to build the 'text' for the view as a spooled output..
which you can edit to pick the columns to exclude)
