Dave & Mike:

I believe you can avoid the transient journaling after the first insert by coding it:

INSERT INTO ....
SELECT......
;INSERT INTO .....
SELECT.....
;INSERT INTO....
SELECT....
;

Notice the there is no space between the semicolon and the INSERT keyword. Teradata treats all of this as an insert into an empty table. I am not sure how the space issue is handled though. If spool is released when it hits the semicolon you are probably good to go!

Just a thought,

Tony
