Thank you for your thoughts, but I am hoping that I don't have to
update 400 tables manually.
The way I understand the postgresql structure is that each field is
listed in the pg_attribute table and those fields with default values
have records in the pg_attrdef table. I changed both the text and the
binary to reflect the new schema and using PGAdmin3, everything
"looks" correct. So when I click on the table it tells me the sequence
is in the correct schema.
Unfortunately, Insert doesn't work.
Thank You
Sim

What I'm thinking of is this situation:
create table foo
(
foo_id serial primary key
, foo_value text not null unique
);
This will create a sequence (public.foo_id_key_seq, I think) as well
as a table
public.foo
(
foo_id integer primary key default nextval('public.foo_id_key_seq')
, foo_value text not null unique
);
(And some indexes as well, but we'll set those aside for now.)
You've renamed the schema, but I think you need to update the default
for the foo_id column manually, e.g.,
alter table stock.foo alter column foo_id set default = nextval
('stock.foo_id_key_seq');
Syntax not checked.
If this isn't what it is, perhaps someone else has an idea.
