Thread: Determining table and column access based on query

Hi,

we would like to evaluate what data a SQL query will access,
is there a possibility to ask the Planner directly which tables and 
columns will be affected in the end?


Thanks
Thomas

explain (verbose)  will show the output columns for each step. 

Is that what you are looking for? 

Actually yes, thanks

Was just blind when checking EXPLAIN :D
