Hi all: I'm writing an admin client for postgres and I'm having a tough time figuring out how some of the system tables work. I have two questions: 1) Is there any place where the system tables and their fields and uses are documented? I can piece together some of the function by doing things in psql and watching what queries get generated, but I have not found answers to all my questions, for example: 2) Which system tables do I query to find all the PRIMARY KEY and UNIQUE constraints on a table? Other tools I have seen do this do it by find all indexes for a table but this doesn't seem to distinguish between PRIMARY KEY and UNIQUE. That's probably enough for now. Thanks in advance for any help. -- sgl ---------- Steve Lane Senior Project Manager Chris Moyer Consulting Inc., Chicago 833 W.
