Preferences? I'm running on a Mac which means the preferences screen is accessible using PgAdmin3 > Preferences - on Windows it may be something like File/Tools > Options/Preferences. Then set the "PG bin path" as appropriate. It may also be that the 8.3 bin folder is set in your PATH variable. Regards, Andy
