Re: restoring a backup and maintaining dependencies?

Thank you so much, I wondered that.   Seemed over simple ;) as I thought there must be an explicit link rather than a naming convention.

:)  Thanks again.

There is no difference between running this script and using the
pgadmin gui. pgadmin is just a front end to the database, it generates
the same sql that you would write manually.

If your table is group_items, name your sequence group_items_seq

Hi again :)

I have saved out these commands:

CREATE TABLE group_items
( id serial NOT NULL, group_id integer, group_type text, item_id integer, visible integer, CONSTRAINT "group_items_PK" PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
WITHOUT OIDS;
ALTER TABLE group_items OWNER TO postgres;


CREATE SEQUENCE group_items_id_seq INCREMENT 1 MINVALUE 1 MAXVALUE 9223372036854775807 START 1 CACHE 1;
ALTER TABLE group_items_id_seq OWNER TO postgres;


If I restore them in pgadmin will they become dependent on each other in
the same way as if I created the table in pgadmin?  Or will they just
become separate entities without any form of link?  If that IS the case,
how can I link them with SQL code, rather than pgadmin?

Advice appreciated lots, I have a lot to learn here :|
