O.K. Thank you. Your advice is excellent. As you requested I checked. What I did is modified the PostgreSQL Portable startup .bat file to include "start cmd /k" While PostgreSQL was "starting ...." and after about 30 seconds, I used "pgsql" to connect to the database. I verified by querying upon the data dictionary. I also, created a table, then re-queried the data dictionary and re-found the table. What is deceptive about the process is that "starting ...." is still going on for another 4 minutes and 30 seconds before it finally finished and I got t back a "pgsql prompt." During that 5 minutes, I spent 4 minutes and 30 seconds querying the data dictionary. I am satisfied. Although, I see "starting...." of 5 minutes strange. But, I am satisfied for now. Thank you.
