Query about SELECT INTO copying table
Posted on 2014-02-06
Hi,
If I copy a table using SELECT * INTO xyz from abc, then would that new table XYZ fetch new rows when old table ABC will be updated?
Or any other method to create a copy and it gets automatically updated?

No. It's a single action, and once it's complete there is no relationship / connectivity between xyz and abc.
>Or any other method to create a copy and it gets automatically updated?
Explain your needs to us, and we'll propose something.

I have a table ABC. One column in ABC needs to be updated for the purpose of creating report. So I cannot make update on ABC.
ABC is a live table, so it keeps updating.
Can I create a procedure? Can you show me how?
Thanks everyone for your replies.

Spell this out for us, as in most companies updating a production table to reflect anything dealing with reporting is bound to get you some unwanted attention.

Create a separate reporting table, for example "ABC_Report_Data", with the key column(s) from table ABC. Put your new data column(s) in that table. You can join to/from ABC using the key column(s).
For example:
CREATE TABLE dbo.ABC (
key_col int ...,
data_col1 ...,
data_col2 ...,
...
)
CREATE TABLE dbo.ABC_Report_Data (
key_col int ..., --FK --> dbo.ABC ( key_col )
report_col ...
)
For example:
CREATE TABLE dbo.ABC (
key_col int ...,
data_col1 ...,
data_col2 ...,
...
)
CREATE TABLE dbo.ABC_Report_Data (
key_col int ..., --FK --> dbo.ABC ( key_col )
report_col ...
)
