Thanks Karaszi,
But in my situatuation:
If I will Insert The Row in 2nd table and then delete from 1st table then
will sql server will maintain 2 copies of the same row in 2 different place
(As You wrote)? then that may lead to performace problem.
I am worried because Both of the table in my case are VERY LARGE (10000000
records in 1st table and 400000 records in 2nd table ) and here i want to
delete some rows from 1st table and insert the rows in second table. So Will
be causing any Performance problem?
You have wrote that cleanup process can be done before insert to the free
space. How we can do that all? Can you please elaborate that.
My Requirement is that: My customer don't want all INACTIVE records in the
main tbale after every 1 or 2 years. The Inactive data will nver be used in
the Application in any of the form. But He want the data to be kept in
another table. Please suggest the best way to do that.
I prefer to move the Data to another table (those are not used) Instead of
filtering the data in each and every menu item. But as per you SQL Server
will maintain 2 identical copies then it may be causeing prob.
Please Suggest.
Thanks
Prabhat
