[postgis-users] aggregate functions

[andy at centremaps.com]

Hi,

Thanks Vincent - that worked on my desktop version of PostGIS, feeling a bit
daft now.

Will try the phpPgAdmin now...

Thanks again and apologies Mark for not giving you all the details the first
time round.

Much appreciated

Andy

PgAdmin III does not show everything by default, especially types,
aggregates, or system catalogs.
Verify in pgadmin : File->preferences->display to ensure your aggregates
should be displayed.
