For creating the parents and child tables I used the same command as the exemple in the documentation (like the picture attached to the mail). I expected from the inheritance to give all information inside the parent table to the child table, but obviously I was wrong. And sorry but like I said in my previous email, I don't have anymore my project where I used the same command and where I had doubts. Don't worry for me, I asked because I thought it was a bug and I was searching for a method for creating an exact copy of an existing table. Don't waste your time for my mistake, I was just wrong. Thank you so much for explaining and taking your time for me. Have a nice day, sincerely. Le mer. 7 mai 2025 à 17:00, Álvaro Herrera <alvherre@kurilemu.de> a écrit : > On 2025-May-07, M.
