First of all, thank you for your reply!
Now, some additional explenations maybe:
That was just an example, with 8 positions separated by semicolon as a
one property. The problem is, there number of this is various. That's
why, I couldyn't solve issue with fix number of column.
With shifting data into history, I've ment, that by each change of data
in primary table, whole record should be copied to the history table
(nearly same construction as primary table).
This is than an issue with the second table, storing semicolon
separated field in one column (splitted) in different table. This need
to be shifted then also, to a second historical table.
Of course, I could ommit using 'working' table, and have only history,
with inserts, and having a primary table containing a pointer to last -
newest record as my primary table, to get the newest record.
The problem is, I'm afraid a little of performance, sice there is all
other actions done on the primary table (select, searches aso.)
Having a big historical table, I will still need to get countinous
joins, to get the newest record, and even having a good indexing and
relation set up, it might be slow while table can be big.
This semicolon devided string, as example was shown pretty simmilar,
but it can be also various:
A10;B13;c20;bubu;lala;GREEN;RED
A13;BUBU;GREEN;YELLOW;mama
C25;YELLOW
BLUE;pleple;B13
aso.
The pointer I was talking about, is just a index, to which position in
this semicolon devided string, is curently activated.
Best regards
Matik
