How can a delete rows from a table that has foreign key constraints?
Here is how I have it set up.
I have 2 tables, tableA has fields and id's and tableB has fields that
reference tableA's id's. I'm not able to do this
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
DELETE FROM tableB
WHERE tableAid = 5;
DELETE FROM tableA

Dear Postgresql people,
For the first time I'm trying to use pg_restore to do a partial restore.
It looks as if it should be easy: pg_restore -l, filter out the
required tables, then pg_restore -L. But unfortunately the listing
generated by pg_resotre doesn't include the schema name! Since m

Hi!
A quite impressive list of changes in version 8.0.0. ...

We have a lot of 7.2.5 versions running which badly needs an update, but
if version 8.0.0 comes in the near future, we could surely hold out a
