I've not actually tried that, but I wouldn't really advise it if it
did work. Could lead to unexpected problems down the road, such as
another personType starting with a "C", etc. It might be interesting
to try it, though, just to see how it worked. :-)

Hello,
is it necessary to have a full column reserved for the class qualifier in
case of single table inheritance?
I.e. instead of qualifier
personType = 'CUSTOMER'
would something like
personType like 'C%'
work? Anyone tried such a thing yet?
Thanx in advance,
Péter
