I don't believe there is a cast from any numeric type to interval. I'd recommend the interval-times-float operator. It should work to write num_min * interval '1 min' This approach has the advantage that it trivially adapts to whatever unit you happen to have the column stated in (seconds, minutes, days, ...) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
