The following may not be your problem at all, but it is a mystery I have
encountered on my own:
If one of the fields in your table is one of the datetime type fields, there is
a certain value you can put into it (I forget what the value is -- it may just
be the format -- long time ago) that will be accepted but will wind up trashing
ONLY THAT TABLE.
I think when I did this, it was on a 6.3.1 release. You didn't give details on
your Postgresql release or execution platform.....
Hope this helps.
