Thank you for your prompt reply.
What is it exactly that you are trying to accomplish?
I want to be able to, from my own script, determine if postgres will
be able to interpret a string as a date or time. If you can suggest a
better way of accomplishing this beyond reimplementing your algorithm
I would be happy to hear it!
Call the appropriate input function in plpgsql and trap a data
exception? These routines are going to be quite hard to mimic, I
suspect. Getting postgres to do the work for you is probably a better
way to go if you can.
