Well, if you're looking for excuses to "upgrade" things, maybe

Wow, thank you Dave, that DOES make things substantially easier
(and less prone to error--sure enough, had a missing external type in
one of the entities). All this modern fanciness, still getting used
to it...
Now my question is, for the Postgresql prototypes, which one
is recommended to use for primary keys? Googling reveals some people
using long (called longNumber in prototypes), which is what I
historically
used, while others are using varchar (but not consistent regarding
size:
10? 100? 10,000,000? :-))
I don't use Postgresql, but I believe that the prototype "id" is the
one to use for PKs and FKs. I see that there only seems to be an
external type of integer for Postgress and even a LongNumber prototype
which has a java datatype of Long, is still an integer in Postgress.
Are postgress integers really longs?

Thank you,

Otherwise, you should be able to just select one entity at a time
and click the SQL button and see which one(s) generate the error. I
see pretty clear error messages with this, that say exactly what
external type is not recognized.
