Yes, it seems fraught with bogus restrictions, which makes me wonder if we're interpreting it correctly. I could understand a definition that says "unqualified names are first sought as output column names, and if no match then treated as input column names; qualified names are always input column names". Perhaps that's what they're really trying to do, but why all the strange verbiage? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
