Hi

I'm sorry for the basic question but is there some documentation 
describing the different fields in the ensembl database. I've found a 
schema document online

http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/api/core/core_schema.html

but this didn't help me find the information i was looking for. In this 
instance I was looking for the list of values for gene biotype field. 
This document didn't list/explain all the fields in each table.

I did find the list of fields from a 'select distinct' query on the 
database.

thanks for your help
