Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

External Table

Hi,

We have an external table say ext1.

I have created another table say ext2 as "create table t2 as select * from ext1"

Then i have dropped ext1 and renamed t2 as ext1

Now the table ext1 is not an external table. How to make this table as external table.

Thanks,

Sathya.S
