You need to update to 7.1.* to have wide columns. The error message "query string too long" is also suspicious, since that string appears nowhere in either current or 7.0 sources. I suspect you are using obsolete client-side software (left over from 6.5 or before) that still thinks Postgres has a query length limit. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://www.postgresql.org/search.mpl
