relation_expr allows specification of "foo *" and "ONLY foo", and is appropriate for ALTER commands that can recurse to child tables. qualified_name is appropriate for the ones that are inherently nonrecursive. I'm entirely prepared to believe that some of them are misclassified in the grammar ... you see any problems? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
