[postgis-users] Repeat operations on 50 tables of the same schema?

[Bo Victor Thomsen]

As other has mentioned: Use the information_schema.tables:

SELECT CONCAT('ALTER TABLE "',table_schema,'"."',table_name,'" RENAME TO 
"IGN_bdTopo_',table_name,'_V1";') AS SQL FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE table_schema = 'ign'

The result from this select is a list of SQL commands to rename each 
table in schema "ign" to another name. You can apply the same method to 
generate other "ALTER" commands. Google "postgres alter table"

By the way - It's a bad habit to have mixed-case table identifiers (Just 
my 2 cents)
