A method for accessing information in a replicated database includes receiving a request for information in a database. The request is associated with a table in the database. The table includes a plurality of identifiers each identifying a portion of the information in the table. The method also includes executing a logical structure associated with the table to produce a logical view of the table. The logical view contains at least a portion of the information from the table without containing the identifiers. The method further includes identifying the requested information in the logical view, and communicating the identified requested information in the logical view.
