Hi I need a function which are able to return the underlying tables to a view.
If I have a view which is a selection from field1 and field2 from table1 and field1 and field2 from table2. How can I make a selection which returns the relation for the fields in a way so I am able to se which field belongs to which table. SELECT * FROM pg_views WHERE viewname='TestView' will return the schema and the definition for me. SELECT * FROM pg_class WHERE relname = 'TestView' will return some oids etc. SELECT * FROM pg_attribute JOIN pg_class ON attrelid = pg_class.oid AND pg_class.relname='TestView' will return the fields including oids etc. But I just cant find out how to find the tables for each field. I hope someone are able to help me with this problem. Regards Jan Andersen ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
