Hello - I am using Postgresql 7.1.3 and I have deleted 3000 rows from a table (with DELETE). Than I used vacuum <mytable> to actually delete the rows markes as deleted by the DELETE command.. The trouble is that the "counter" for the serial primary key (ID field) wasn't reset. So now althought I have only 2 rows in my table they have the ID 3001 and 3002.
Is this normal ? If not could someone please explain me how could I reset the "counter" to ignore the deleted rows ? Thank you very much Carmen ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
