guys, i want to log some data everyday. for this i can do 1 of 2 things: 1) i can create an empty 'template' table and copy it everyday before data logging including defaults. # including constraints (thanks greg) doesn't work but more on that later. helps- i avoid spending more time on lengthy domain creation everyday (??). hurts- i have to share sequences between everyday tables (i can do away with sequences but not sure on that). 2) i can simply create an identical table everyday and go on with data logging. helps- hmm, the smell of fresh new sequences everyday! hurts- i spend more time on creation (??). either way i get the job done but what would you recommend? no inheritance please since it couples and complicates. using 8.1.4. jzs http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/sql-createtable.html
