Body
I have some tables with the same structure and I want to make a select in a group of them. Rather than just making a loop to all of those tables, I would like to put a subquery after the FROM of the main query. Is it possible or it will fail? Thanks! (Using Oracle) <hr> Additional info: I don't have the name of the table right away! They're stored in another table. Is it possible to have a subquery that I could put after the FROM of my main query?

1. COA design that has data dictionary info (e.g. table names) stored in the model is probably wrong. In any case, dynamic SQL will be the only way to go.

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
