Hello Richard,
Is there a way to do something similar with the following? I am an SQL noob and the
following takes longer to run than is reasonable, on the order of hours.
insert into myevents select * from t_unit_event_log a where exists
(select b.event_log_no from myevents b
where a.event_status = 1 and a.event_ref_log_no IS NOT NULL
and a.event_ref_log_no = b.event_log_no and a.event_log_no not in
(select event_log_no from myevents)
)
Thanks,
Steve
