My attempt at this problem:
test=# \d date_check
Table "public.date_check"
Column | Type | Modifiers
----------+----------------------+-----------
id | integer |
date_fld | character varying(7) |
Check constraints:
"date_check_date_fld_check" CHECK (isfinite(replace(date_fld::text,
'.'::text, '/01/'::text)::date) AND length(date_fld::text) = 7)
test=# INSERT INTO date_check VALUES (1,'12.2009');
INSERT 0 1
test=# INSERT INTO date_check VALUES (1,'13.2009');
ERROR: date/time field value out of range: "13/01/2009"
HINT: Perhaps you need a different "datestyle" setting.
test=# INSERT INTO date_check VALUES (1,'12.09');
ERROR: new row for relation "date_check" violates check constraint
"date_check_date_fld_check"
test=# SELECT * from date_check ;
id | date_fld
----+----------
1 | 12.2009
(1 row)
