That's what I tought the problem was, but I created a table afterwards without inheritence.

Hi Stephan, I figured out what happened: The master table contained duplicates, but the insert statement seems to be very smart by selecting just the unique ones.

[GENERAL] Question insert data
Hi There, I've a problem with inserting data and I can't figure out what the problem is: what did I do: 1. I've a master table containing about 4 records. A count(*) provides me the exact number. 2.

The number of records copied is about 2553. Issueing the same select statement on the master table gives me a list of 5106 which is twice the number of copied records.
