Обсуждение: Referring a table in another database
Hi, Is it possible to make a reference to a table in another database in PostgreSQL? I know I can do that in Access. If it's not possible I have to make all of my tables in 1 database. Thank you very much in advance if you can give me some pointers. Jo

It's being discussed as a feature (SQL-standard schemas) in the next version (after 7.2 which is currently in beta). -Doug -- Let us cross over the river, and rest under the shade of the trees. --T.

Hello, That is correct. Currently within PostgreSQL tables are specific to their database and can not cross-query. You will have to create all tables within the database.

Maybe it is possible to run queries remotely using plperl, but I am not sure. Best regards, Jean-Michel POURE
