Subject: [pgadmin-support] Error adding new column to existing
table.

Short version: using the "Add Column" GUI on an existing table
puts double quotes around the datatype, and won't run.

Hi Ted,

I'm surprised it didn't work with the quotes to be honest, but that
aside, theres a known quoting bug in beta1 that has been fixed for beta2
that almost certainly caused this. It should also be fixed in the latest
snapshot at http://pgadmin.postgresql.org/snapshots/win32/ if you wish
to upgrade to that.

Thanks for the email though - a textbook example of the perfect bug
report; I wish they were all like that!

Regards, Dave
