The behavior hasn't changed since at least as far back as 8.1, so you're correct (once again) -- not a bug. I'm really surprised I haven't already bumped into this. I usually don't mix tables-as-storage with tables-as-composites though. Mike, on 9.1, you'll probably get more mileage out of using the hstore type for row storage if you want to do auditing in that style. merlin -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
