I've searched the archives and found this question was asked in 2001 but never answered.  Does the order of fields in a table make a difference?  In Paradox (from whence I come), there was some belief that reliability was increased if memo (text) fields were placed at the end of the table.  If field order does make a difference, does the EMS PostgreSQL manager "reorder" function physically rearrange the fields?
 
Thanks for your time in considering this basic question
