alter table (external table) location?

541781Mar 28 2007 — edited Mar 30 2007
Hi,

I'm using this statement to change the filename for an external table definition, this works fine.
Is it possible to alter the external table location also and make it dynamicly and not only the filename?

alter table '||ext_table_name||' location('''||filename||'.csv'||''')';

Filename is a parameter in my procedure.

Thanks in advance.
