course. So, you'd have to do a work around. Whether you store phony dates to
go with your time, or store your time in a varchar2 column depends on what
you want to do with your time. I'd _guess_ that if you don't have a date
relevant to the time, then you're not going to be treating it as a _real_
time (i.e. not doing time math and stuff like that). In which case, I'd
probably store it as a varchar2.
