RE: How to do this in pgsql?

Hi Larry,

I'm something of a newbie to PostgreSQL myself, but I just happened to be
reading the section in Bruce Momjian's book that discusses how to display a
table's structure in psql.  The command is "\d <table_name>".

The user-defined types will be in chapter 16, which is, as yet, unwritten.
But the Programmer's Guide seems to discuss this topic.

If you haven't looked at Momjian's book yet, I highly recommend you download
a copy.

Good luck,
