If you think about things like the output of "\d tablename", turn on the logging of queries, do a "\d tablename" and watch the logfiles. Somewhere I need the fieldtypes of a table named $this->table, the query is $q = "SELECT a.attname, format_type(a.atttypid, a.atttypmod) FROM pg_class c, pg_attribute a WHERE c.relname = '".$this->table."' AND a.attnum > 0 AND a.attrelid = c.oid ORDER BY a.attnum"; which is stolen from the logs - I'll never understand it ;) Greetings, Knut Sübert
