Hi All, I have a teradata related problem. I have a table with approx 300 columns. I need to check the following SELECT count (*) from abc where abc.a = null The problem is that i have to do this operation for all the columns in the table. This was easy in Oracle with the help of DD views. Something like declare cursor cur is select column_name from user_tab_columns where table_name ='abc'; sqlstr varchar2(100); temp number; begin for c in cur loop sqlstr := 'select count (*) into temp from abc where' c.column_name '=null'; exec sqlstr; dbms_output.put_line 'count = ' temp ; end loop; end ; Is this kind of a DD operation supported in Teradata .. ?? Is there some metadata repository in Teradata ?? I want some kind of a script that wud enable me to do this instead of running the query 300 times. I have found out the Data Dictionary view in Teradata similar to user_tab_columns in Oracle. But in the above script i wud need to use the Dynamic SQL as in Oracle. Is there a similar feature in Teradata ? If yes, then pls let me know how to use it in the abve context. Or if there are any tools to support my task mentioned above. Pls let me know Regards Sukanya.
