Hi. >I am looking for an easy way to backup views and functions. I want to store >them in our version control system. Well... As far as I can see, for functions you should go to the 'pg_catalog' schema, table 'pg_proc'. In column 'prosrc' you will find the original text, but other attributes are dispersed in a few columns, including arrays for argument names and types. For views, you should look in the view 'pg_views'. This is the result of a quick reading through the catalog, I hope I can only hope I'm not missing something, please check carefully if this is waht you're looking for. Regards, Helder M. Vieira
