Use one of the following procedures to create a proxy table. You cannot create proxy tables for system tables.

The CREATE EXISTING TABLE statement creates a proxy table that maps to an existing table on the remote server. SQL Anywhere derives the column attributes and index information from the object at the remote location.

For information about the CREATE EXISTING TABLE statement, see CREATE EXISTING TABLE statement.
