Ahhhh, interesting!

\dT+ myschema.*

I see the type "xxx_xxx_xxxxx" (which is the one my method is looking for).

There are not types in the public schema:

# \dT+ public.*
List of data types
Schema | Name | Internal name | Size | Elements | Access privileges |
Description
--------+------+---------------+------+----------+-------------------+-------------
(0 rows)

Cool! Dumb question, but is foo the schema or the type?

Thanks so much for the tips Paul! I really appreciate your help. :)
