In trying to determine why I had a corrupted piece of data (still investigating that) I created a temporary table that contained the row of data in question.  In doing so, I must have done something to the pg_catalog because I no longer was able to perform a dump without getting the following error:

        pg_dump: schema with OID 469554554 does not exist

I recycled the server. I cannot see the temporary table anywhere as (expected) through psql or PG Admin.  However, looking at the pg catalog I found the above OID referenced in the tables in the attached spreadsheet with the name of the temporary table that I created.  My database is functioning without problem.  However, I cannot perform a database dump.  Please advise on how I can correct this problem.  I am working in a PosgteSQL 7.4.2 database on a Red Hat Linux 8.0 OS.

With Great Thanks,
