That is not a real good option, but I'm afraid that you're right :-( Very stupid of me, but even more stupid of the designers of postgresql I think. Shouldn't there be any until to convert to a new format when a things change to a new format ? I'll try to install the FC4 packages and see if I can backup. If not than I'll delete my database and start building it from scratch (it's not large, just started using it). Regards, Marcel
