Hey,

Yeah, I mostly use psql but I have a lot of functions on my databases
and find pgAdmin3 far superior for viewing functions than psql.  I just
like to have options.  I really needed it yesterday for some functions I
was working on but I got on find without it.  I just gave up trying to
install it, way too much trouble.  Software ceases to be a time saver
when have have to spend hours trying to install it!

Anyway, thanks for the help.

Later
