Thanks for your ideas, right now I'm sending a new image of my proposal table figure interface for evaluation. This is a concept donde using Gimp (but almost finished at source code too), time I use same pgAdmin figures but I didn't find a figure for pk,fk columns (with hierarchy), any suggestions for this icon? I used * & O as not null and null symbols as in GQB. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome. Regards, Luis.
