Hi everyone,

I need some help
Can I dump specifc table and still get the actual sequence for it.
Somehow when I go

pg_dump -Fc -t <table name> -D <dbname>
it only give me the for that table
create table text
all the indexes
all the triggers

However, it totally does not bring in the sequence for that table
create table address (
  id integer DEFAULT nextval('address_id_seq'::text) NOT NULL
  phone1 text
);
and address_id_seq is not mentioned anywhere in the dump file?
Am I doing something wrong?
Any insight would be appreciated.

How can I get it?
Thanks a bunch

It works for me in 7.3 and later --- at least when the column was
created by calling it a SERIAL column.  If you made the sequence
separately then I don't think this is really a bug.
