Not providing enough detail to let anyone help you ;-)
Let's see the table schema (pg_dump -s -t table is a useful way to
collect the info quickly and accurately), the attempted query, and
the EXPLAIN output for it. Also, if you do
SET enable_seqscan TO OFF;
how does that change the EXPLAIN result?
