------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Dec 14 08:43:44 -0800 2006 ------- OO-Base will not allow any inserts or updates to database fields of either the 'money' or 'numeric' data types, when using JDBC to connect to a postgresql DB. I've tried both the 8.1 and 8.2 jdbc drivers. I'm using Sun JRE 1.5.0_9. For a numeric field, the error dialog says: ERROR: column "xxx" is of type numeric but expression is of type character varying I get a similar error with 'money' fields. Basically, it's impossible to handle currency with JDBC and postgresql. The table data types appear correctly identified if I open the Edit Table dialog. This appears to be over zealous type checking on the part of OOo. I can insert or update stuff by executing SQL statements in the "SQL..." dialog. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
