Not exactly what I'm looking for. The type_code in the tuple is a number. For one of my tables I see the following numbers: 1, 2, 10, 252, 253, 254. What I wanted was a listing telling me which number was which type_code. -- "The dichotomy between personal liberties and property rights is a false one. Property does not have rights. People have rights. ...
