create table <new table name>as select * from<original tablename> where 1>2;

  Was this answer useful?  Yes

To create a table in oracle from using the existing table without taking records from the original table  .The command will be

Create table <table name > as select * from <oldtable name > where condition which should not ture in the old table

e.g

create table t1 as select * from t2 where age=0;

in above example age can not be 0 for any value.

So , in above case only the sturcture of the table will copy and no records will be there in the new table .

create table as select * from where 4=5; we must mention the condition in where clause.and that condition should not satisfy.so you can give any condition.

  Was this answer useful?  Yes

Create table tab1 as select * from tab2 where 1=2;


In where clause give any condition which never satisfies,just like the above condition.
Never  will be 1 equal to 2.Hence it fails and only the structure of tab2 will be created as structure of tab1.
