Stephen,

OK. I guess this is a good solution. I just thought OIDs as I
had some recent problems getting Postgis data displayed in
QGIS and PGAdmin (clients). If you don't have a primary key,
it tries to use OIDs for unique identifier. So you can tackle
2 problems in one go.

Do *not* use postgresql OIDs.

Create a sequence and add a column to each table which defaults to
nextval() on that sequence.  He's only talking about 3 tables anyway.

        Thanks,
