Try a view defined like:
CREATE VIEW appointment0 AS SELECT * FROM appointment WHERE done='Y';
CREATE VIEW appointment1 AS SELECT * FROM appointment WHERE done='N';
Then appointment0 and appointment1 are not real tables, but "virtual
tables". You can still do:
SELECT * FROM appointment0;
or
SELECT * FROM appointment1;
Now if you insert a record into appointment or update a record in
appointment it will automatically appear in the output of appointment0
or appointment1 depending on the value of "done". You never have to
insert into appointment0 or appointment1.
