Thank you for your reply.
 The tables are in fact seperated by products, as each set of product-
 specific data are handled by
 different engineers. These sets of data need to be sliced and diced
 into various analyses, and the
 engineers would also need to dive into raw data for some of their
 work.
 
 Because these product-specific data sets are large (several million
 records each), I thought that
 perprocessing and seperating them into their respective tables would
 help the engineers access
 their analyses and data faster.
 
 In any case, I have already done the needful and have had the required
 tables generated.
 
 Thanks!
