Question

I have DB(in MySQL) that looks like:

CREATE TABLE tbl1(... ,title VARCHAR(69) DEFAULT("new title"), ...);
CREATE TABLE tbl3(... ,title VARCHAR(69) DEFAULT("new title"), ...);
CREATE TABLE tbl3(... ,title VARCHAR(69) DEFAULT("new title"), ...);

The question is: Is there any way how to don’t repeat the values(66,”new title”) many times ?
Thanks !

I already have tried 2 solutions, but they doesn’t works.

1-

SET @title_len=69,@title_def="new title";
CREATE TABLE tbl1(... ,title VARCHAR(@title_len) DEFAULT(@title_def), ...);

2-

CREATE TYPE TitleType FROM VARCHAR(69) DEFAULT("new title");
CREATE TABLE tbl1(... ,title TitleType, ...);

Answer 1

Create first table, e.g. –

CREATE TABLE tbl1(column1 INT, column2 INT);

Then use CREATE TABLE statement with LIKE option to duplicate table structure –

CREATE TABLE tbl2 LIKE tbl1;
CREATE TABLE tbl3 LIKE tbl1;
...
