The query above is casting idmovimientos to TEXT to do the comparison (since LIKE is pointless on a BIGINT value). 8.3 doesn't do this automatically. If you have a legit reason to do the above comparison, cast that column to TEXT. Although I agree with Alvaro that the query (as provided) is pretty pointless. You could also adjust the pg_cast table to make the cast implicit, which would mimic the 8.2 behaviour. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc. http://people.collaborativefusion.com/~wmoran/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 412-422-3463x4023 -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
