I just wish the postgres documentation were a little better. Um, if you were a bit more specific that would be helpful ;) The topic you have asked about is in the docs somewhere; now that you know the solution perhaps you can go back and suggest where in the docs this should appear to make it clearer. Without looking, I'd predict you will find something about the SERIAL type in the User's Guide in the chapter on data types... Good luck. - Thomas -- Thomas Lockhart lockhart@alumni.caltech.edu South Pasadena, California
