Is there something similar to DESCRIBE in postgres? " ahhh computers, how they made our lives much simpler ;) "

If you are using the psql interactive prompt, [tt]\d[/tt] should do what you want. //Daniel

I thought DESCRIBE, describes the columns in the table, I would like to view the datatypes of each field.

thanks " ahhh computers, how they made our lives much simpler ;) "

In [tt]psql[/tt] if you type: [tt]\d table_name[/tt] you get the same thing.
