CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW is similar, but if a view
- of the same name already exists, it is replaced. You can only replace
- a view with a new query that generates the identical set of columns
- (i.e., same column names and data types).
+ of the same name already exists, it is replaced. The new query must
+ generate all of the same columns that were generated by the original query
+ in the same order and with the same data types, but may add additional
+ columns to the end of the list.
