Hi, I have created a table songs as follwoing: CREATE TABLE songs ( song_id serial NOT NULL, title character varying(50) NOT NULL, composer varchar(50), performer varchar(50), artist_id int4 not null, file_size int4, description text, extrInfo text, highmd5 text, lowmd5 text, PRIMARY KEY (song_id), constraint fk_songs_art foreign key( artist_id) references artist ); I also created an other index on attribute title as: create unique index title_idx on songs(title); Then I vacuum analyzed my data base. On command line I type : explain select title from songs where song_id between 1 and 15 order by song_id; NOTICE: QUERY PLAN: Sort (cost=1.70..1.70 rows=14 width=16) -> Seq Scan on songs (cost=0.00..1.44 rows=14 width=16) EXPLAIN One thing I don't uderstand why query planer is using a seq scan on my table. Why it is not using indexing defined. Thank you all for all your help. Regards. Najm
