I want to grab it programmatically because from time to time words are added/removed.

Hello List,

I’m wondering if there is a way to retrieve/query PostgreSQL for a list of key words matching that of Appendix C. SQL Key Words. I’m using PostgreSQL 9.1 and java. I’ve already tried java’s DatabaseMetaData.getSQLKeywords, but the API states “Retrieves a comma-separated list of all of this database's SQL keywords that are NOT also SQL:2003 keywords.” As a result many key words are left out. Any help on this matter is much appreciated.

The Manual has a list in the appendix:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/sql-keywords-appendix.html

Sorry for not reading the first part of your question, you've already found the list I pointed you to.

Why can't you just save the list in Appendix C and read it in to your application?
