Hi everyone on the list.
I've been trying to get a way to copy a postgresql table or some columns from 
table into another one, but this new table must be in another databse and, 
also, could be in another server. I was working on  a jdbc app , which run well 
when the destiny table was in the same database than the source ( it was with 
"create table as select ... into)"), really easy, but we have the other case. 
 
 I feel it could be possible writing a function , which receives some variables 
( postgresql server, db and table, sql query for filtering data). The problem 
is that I cant find any example about the following:
 
-- connecting to a server within the function.
-- retrieve data form this server ( I think some cursors would be useful to 
save each column, and run by the rows)
-- connecting to another server, und create a table (with a name provided by 
user), where I can insert data from cursors.
 
I think it could be answered by replication (Slony ? ), but I have to do it 
without any other tool.
 
Does anyone knows If it's possible, and how to do it?
 
thanks in advance.
