I am sorry for being lazy Tom....This part of the dynamix statement
your right is simple and would work.
ITs actuall in the the beginning.... INSERT INTO _dynamic_table....
Its substituting the table name for the insert that does not work and
I was wondering the technical reasons behind that. I had thought
about a rule, but on a rule the table has to already exist in order to
do an instead of insert. My purpose is I am trying to implement
partitioning. I included the full trigger function below. The
function does work as is, my only complaint is that on the columns I
have to coalesce i get '' (null string) inserted instead of an actual
null and this has made me have to make some columns text or varchar
instead of numeric or other data types. (for example cancel_date
should be a date type, but if this comes thorugh as null i have to
coalesce it or the whole string becomes null, and '' is not a valid
date type so I had to make the table column a varchar)
