Roland,
Check out the SQL manual, the syntax diagram clearly illustrates that you
don't need to explicitly name the column names as long as you are inserting
into all of the columns in the order they are defined in the data
dictionary.
insert into table_A values ('Hi', 'there');
A word of friendly caution -- the list will rapidly recognize you by name
and fail to answer questions when it is obvious that you haven't taken the
time to 1) try it yourself and 2) read the docs. Also, you need to give
more information in your queries. We realize that Oracle is a big, bad
world and there is a lot to know, but most of us don't have the time to
answer every question every newbie has. I, of course, am an exception at
the moment since I am just killing time this week waiting to be laid off...
Regards,
Diana

Hallo,
How can I create an insert statement without telling all the names of the
columns?
Give an example, please.
