Re: PG Admin

I'm doing something similar - using a control table, dropping and creating
the serial column and updating in a manner that does the job.

It works - barely. I am seeking a more elegent and stable method. Having a
simple update recognizing the row numbers (in version 1.6.1) would be
better - perhaps.
