The good news is that I don't think you've found a bug. You're
probably making a mistake somewhere in here. Someone else would have
surely noticed by now if what you're saying were true. The bad news
is that I don't know what advice to give you on how to fix it. The
further bad news is that this is not the right place for pgadmin
questions (if you reread the bug reporting form carefully, you'll
notice that pgadmin bugs are listed as one of the things not to report
here). I think you might want to try here:
