It hadn't occurred to me to reindex the pg_class!! Beginner... After reindexing, both query lines were successful, and I was able to access my missing tables!! THANKS!! What could be the possible cause for this?

That doesn't make a lot of sense. To cut to the chase, though: try "REINDEX pg_class" and see if it helps. regards, tom lane *********************************************************************** Bear Stearns is not responsible for any recommendation, solicitation, offer or agreement or any information about any transaction, customer account or account activity contained in this communication.
