Hi all,
Does anyone have any tips or examples on the use of the select columns function to create a new table.
I'm trying to create a new table based on an extract of an existing one and their is limited information on this function available.
Alternately, if there is another function that provides the same and allows the result to be viewed and edited in the table editor?
Cheers
Solved! Go to Solution.
You can better use the query editor window and Duplicate/Reference an existing query in order to create a table with data from another table.
Hi @pat_energetics,
if you want to extract some columns from a table to put them in another table you can use the SELECTCOLUMNS() function.
Here the neededarguments for the function:
and an example..
..let me know if it works.

Thanks B129,
Although that works the suggestion given by mi2n seems more appropriate for ourapplication. By going back to the source query and duplicating what we need upstream, it seems the resulting table is much easier to work with.
