Re: \c bpsimple rick

I am guessing that my confusion is over something which may be a typo in the text book.

I have moved along and have now make good progress in running with \i the sql scripts which may be downloaded from

http://www.apress.com/book/supplementDownload.html?bID=424&sID=2569

the publisher of the book,

to define tables for the exercises, and load the tables with data.

So, thanks for the help here to get me started!

in the next exercise, I am in template1 as user neil, who has the prompt =# which means that neil has power to create databases. I am told to \c bpsimple rick, and it says NOTICE THE PROMPT changes to =>, meaning rick has no power to create databases.

I am confused, since clearly, I created user/role rick as someone with the power to create databases.
