Thanks for the response. I added a commit() after my update_record but I'm still having the same issue.
Using the DB admin, I edited a record on there and the same thing happens: modify a record and it doesn't show up on a "db.part.id>0" in the admin interface. I can view and modify it if I go to a specific record, but can't view them all. Is this something with postgres? Did I set something up wrong?
