Probably because it scrolls off the top of a standard 24 row screen when the \? is used. Or at least on my 6.3.x system at home. Can't imagine the command list getting shorter in 6.4 ;-) Maybe the \? command could page the display? Rod -- Roderick A. Anderson raanders@altoplanos.net Altoplanos Information Systems, Inc.

I don't get to play (work) with PostgreSQL as much as I'd like to so this fell out of my short term memory unit. It will come in handy when I get back to work on a couple of projects. Sounds like we're running out of excuses for missing the '\do' ;-) I didn't have a problem finding it when I've been exploring PostgreSQL but then I'm very observant (or AR if you believe my wife).
