Depesz -

I'm fairly sure it's not a problem with something I'm doing wrong because I've 
used the same code before. It has to be something wrong on the DB side. But 
just to entertain you I did as you requested:

RigMinder_NewDBTest02=# \d test
    Table "public.test"
 Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+------+-----------


RigMinder_NewDBTest02=#

Before I ran this I created a table using the following:

create table "test" ("column1" text, "column2" float);

It ran without any errors. Yesterday after I sent out the help request I 
uninstalled postgresql and installed version 9.0.10 and I'm having the same 
problem. It does look like it only occurs when my logging package is running. 
Ie if I shut it down, I can create tables in pgAdmin, but as soon as my program 
is running, I get the errors described above. Any other ideas on how to fix 
this? 

Thanks for all the help!
Matt

most likely you did insert like:
insert into mod_1237 (Collecteddepth) values (...) i.e. you didn't quote the 
column names. Hence the problem.

In psql, you can do:
\d mod_1237

and you will see the columns are there.
