I have a table that I recently altered by adding several timestamp columns. I would like to query the table for those rows for which the timestamp has not been set but am unable to find a way to do so. any tips ? in psql the column appears empty and char_length returns nothing.
Some of what I have tried "" -> not valid char_length(last_timestamp) > 0 -> returns the rows with the time stamps where NOT char_length(last_timestamp) > 0 -> returns 0 rows where NOT (char_length(last_timestamp) > 0 ) -> returns 0 rows where last_timestamp = NULL; -> 0 rows this is kicking my butt, and starting to piss me off so if any one has tips I would appreciate it.
