Oliver,
How should I use this?
I tried this way but of no use.
psql -E -U siva -d template1 -c \d test (test is a table in template1)


Am I missing anything here?
Regards,
Siva Kumar.K

Oops sorry for that post.
Actually we need to do like this.
Psql -E -U siva -d template1
Template1=>\d test;
It gives the queries.


Thanks

You should also take a look at
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/newsysviews/; it makes getting this kind
of info out of the database much easier.
