Check out the dblink contrib module that comes with PostgreSQL. It does the exact same thing, though without special syntax: create view foo as select * from dblink( 'host=1.2.3.4 dbname=remotedb user=dbuser password=secretpass', 'select id, title from foo') as remote_foo(id int, title text); Alexander. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
