Re: Trigger on Postgres for tables syncronization

Prabu,

You should use views for appointment0 and appointment1.
That way when you insert/modify in appointment, the modifications will
automatically show up in the views too.

See also http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/sql-createview.html
on how to create a view.

Cheers,
Csaba.
