Hi All,
I have two tables:
CREATE TABLE t1 (id int not null unique, info text);
CREATE TABLE t2 (id int, grp int references t1(id), info text);
Now, at certain point (both tables populated with tousends of records,
and continuesly referenced by users), I need to adjust the value of an
ID field of table T1.
How can I do that? On the life system?
Obvious solution like:
UPDATE t1 SET id=239840 where id=9489;
or in fact:
UPDATE t1 SET id=id+10000 where id<1000;
wouldn't work, regretably.
Naturally I need to have column t2(grp) adjusted accordingly - within a
single transaction.
Asking this, because currently I've learned, that I can adjust the
structure of my database (add/remove columns at will, reneme those,
etc.), but I'm really stuck with 'looking so simple' task.
Today I dump the database and perl-edit whatever's necesary and restore
the database. But that's not a solution for life system.
Is there a way to get this done? life/on-line?
