It is OK Benilton, there was a major addition to the hierarchy of 
database objects in PostgreSQL.  Now we support SQL-Schemas, which can 
be thought of as a collection of tables and other elements, somewhat 
similar to a namespace with its own access privileges.

A database now has several "schemas".  The system tables and several 
other system objects now reside in the "pg_catalog" schema.  The tables 
of old-style (non-SQL-Schemas) databases as well as newly created ones 
that are not schema-qualified go into the schema "public".

If you expand the Schemas node and the public node under it you will 
find your tables.

Things have been designed so that if you don't want to use SQL-Schemas 
or is using an old database your sql scripts and programs will work as 
before.  The new manuals describe the SQL-Schemas facility in detail.

Regards,
Fernando
