Thread: inherited tables
Hello, I have some inherited tables, which all share the same primary key, like table1 with PK id table2 inherits table1 with PK id table3 inherits table1 with PK id where id is a serial. If I have an id, is there an easy way to find out in which of these tables this record is created (was it INSERT INTO table1 or INSERT INTO table2 or INSERT INTO table3)? Hope you understood what I intented to say. Regards, Verena

There is an example in the docs: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/ddl-inherit.html Sean
