Hi Tomi,

The "geometry_columns" table will tell us which columns have spatial 
data.  I am uncertain how multiple spatial columns would be handled, but 
presumably the first one would be used.

Could you send me a copy of your log file? (in uDig, Help > About > 
Configuration Details > View Error Log).   What version of uDig, 
Postgres, and PostGIS are you using?  Is the PostGIS publically 
accessible (i'd like to hit it), and if not, could you send some details 
about the table structure?

Thanks,
Cory.
