I'm using access as a frontend to a postgresql db, I've inherited it.
I've added a new column to a table in postgresql, but I can't access it in access. Do I need to add the same column in access and define the link or would it do this automatically. Any help is welcomed.
I'm using linked tables, to get the new column to show up I needed to refresh the linked connection.

I need to automatically add an author of an inserted row in one of its columns. I am using postgREST (using Supabase cloud service) and I don't want users to add whoever they want as the author. Is there a way to automatically add user id of the user posting the data? Thanks!
The column's DEFAULT value should be:
uid() for Supabase.
current_user for Postgres.
You can add it via Table Editor or use auth.uid() in your SQL functions.
I'm creating a discord member db in PostgreSQL but I'm still a beginner.
And I'm trying, as specified in the title, to create a rule that, when I add a new member to the db, adds a json to that member's column.
Here's the code I got so far and it's not working:
CREATE OR REPLACE RULE tank_json AS
ON INSERT TO public.members
DO (UPDATE members
SET tank={"own_tank"=0, "engine"=0, "wheels"=0, "cannon"=0}
WHERE NEW.name);
I think that the problem might be on the last part "WHERE NEW.name" but I'm not sure how else I'm supposed to specify where it should add that json without messing with the other member's data.
Thanks in advance.
I need to add a new column to an existing table, I know I could create a new model and migrate the data over but that wouldn't be idle any other way?
Unfortunately the only other way is to use some administration tool for your database to manually update the schema to match the one for the new model.
I create a DB where each table is a different project.
However, i am not sure how i would go about creating a form in which a user can choose a specific table (project) from a drop down menu and than be able to update/edit/modify the contents in the table.
Each table is standardized to contain exact column headers.
Thanks in advance for you help.
I would like to write a query that uses the IBM DB2 system tables (ex. SYSIBM) to pull a query that exports the following:
LIBRARY_NAME, LIBRARY_DESC, FILE_NAME, FILE_DESC, FIELD_NAME, FIELD_DESC
I can access the descriptions via the UI, but wanted to generate a dynamic query.
Thanks.
Along with SYSTABLES and SYSCOLUMNS, there is also a SYSSCHEMAS which appears to contain the data you need. Please note that accessing this information through QSYS2 will restrict rows returned to those objects with which you have some access - the SYSIBM schema appears to disregard this (check the reference - for V6R1 it's about page 1267).
You also shouldn't need to retrieve this with a dynamic query - static with host variables (if necessary) will work just fine.
