Re: maximum number of rows in table - what about oid limits?

Jon,

> How exactly? The column types would just be INT8, right?

Ah. I see what you mean. In my application, the columns are all
*named* the same ... clients.usq, orders.usq, etc. Thus a search on
"usq" through out the application will locate everything.

If you needed and INT8 variable, you could define a custom type on INT8
... and then search on that type.

<Snicker>
A variable indicating success or failure. e.g. In MSSQL, you get a
ReturnValue of INT2 type ... with 0 indicating success, and <> 0 as an
error number.

Speaking of which, one thing I forgot to explicitly mention above is
error trapping of some kind would be extremely useful ...
