I apologize for the vagueness 🙂What I have is table1 which has been imported externally with 4 fields including an (AccountDescription) field
srvnameAccountAccountDescriptionDATE_CREATION
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I need to be able to copy only 3 fields from another similar table whenever a new record is added as less the (AccountDescription) ,the data in this field is manually entered by me
srvnameAccount DATE_CREATION
I hope it's clearer
I will go with no. At least to me it is much less clear than it was previously. ddl for the two tables and an explanation would go a long way here.
