not sure i completely understood ( i am new to postgres AND this kind of
software...........) and end user to boot........not on network just local...
I can find NO documentation of how to get postermaster going for
newbies............
i can only get above commands to work ( which was likely the orig. posters
intent ) if I
type in set c in front of them all.........I did NOT try the last line
Pg_exec as i just started pgaccess after
set c pg_connect handiman
that line produced no errors so i thought i was ready to go.....
but once inside pgaccess i was unable to connect to handiman database........
i was gettting unable to connect to localhost/is postmaster running with -i
and accepint connections on tcp/ip at 5432 .........????
thanks for any help
