Hmmm... My pg version was 6.5.2 and seems that it doesn't support it.
I just check it out on 7.1... and "comment" was OK. ;)
thanks

Hi,
I couldn't find such a thing.
May be better if having a copy from pg_tables and add a description column 
to that:

Create table foo as Select * from pg_tables;
Alter table foo add col descript text ;

HTH

Hi everybody,

I want to have a description for tables in my DB(Postgresql DB).
Is there any way to put description of tables in Postgresql DB or not?!

Thanks in Advance,
Fariba

You could use the "COMMENT" command.
Something like:
COMMENT ON TABLE <table name> IS '<comment>';

HTH,

I got my knowledge from the PostgreSQL: Introduction and Concepts book.
