Hello There
I just want to ask a quick question of you all.
Do you have any insights on the following?
What are the Postives & Negatives of creating a large
table on a database with around 500 fields.
Also this table could have up to 6-8 million records.
This Table would also have to have a lot of indexes & get appended to on a daily basis?
Many Thanks For any advice recieved....

you have ONE table with 500 columns!?!?
how big would 1 row be? if it is more then one oracle block size you will not be able to store the row using one block. This is not ideal but happens a lot.
first try to break up the table in to smaller tables and link with foreign keys. If this is not possiable then you must partitioin the table. find a logical grouping of the data and partition the table along these lines.
