And possibly not then either ;-). There are some rather serious
problems with the current patch --- unless Rod can resolve them
satisfactorily, I think we'll have to back out the feature.

Thank you for the clarifications. I wanted to do somthing like this. say phone_no is a domain defined as varchar(25) and i want to use this domian in all DDLs. say one fine day i realize varchar(25) is not sufficient then i was planning to do something like alter domain phone_no varcahr(100) so that all DDLs would automatically get updated. Is there any other way of fullfulling this reqmt. in postgresql 7.3? Regds MAllah.
