what kind of column is t1.created? It appears that it
is a text column and the format looks like a date. Is
this correct or is it a date? I need more information
about your table structure.
What about:
SELECT t2.id, t2.name, to_char(cast (t1.created as
date),'DD/MM/YYYY')
but the other '::' should work also.
extremedb=> SELECT to_char(cast ('12/4/2004' as
date),'DD/MM/YYYY');
to_char
------------
04/12/2004
(1 row)
extremedb=> SELECT
to_char('12/4/2004'::date,'DD/MM/YYYY');
to_char
------------
04/12/2004
(1 row)
I have a table with a timestamp in it called
createdate..
\d clientinfo
Table "public.clientinfo"
Column | Type |
Modifiers
-----------------+--------------------------+-----
acode | text |
not null
createdate | timestamp with time zone | default
now()
extremedb=> SELECT to_char(cast (clientinfo.createdate
as date),'DD/MM/YYYY') from clientinfo;
to_char
------------
14/07/2004
