I've never seen anyone use a gradian, even though my calculator had them when I was 16. I even misread the request, thinking he meant "radians". Definitely -1 to gradians in PostgreSQL. Also -1 to furlongs, fortnights, pecks and hundredweight, amongst others. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ <http://www.2ndquadrant.com/> PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
