Right now, GRANT on a table doesn't do anything about subsidiary sequences. (There have been discussions about changing that, but nothing's happened yet.) So if you want someone to be able to INSERT into a table with a serial column, you need to give them UPDATE rights on the sequence. Offhand I see no direct reason why they'd need SELECT rights on the sequence, but maybe they do. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
