Actually, what you got was a *textual* comparison between '1995' and the timestamp converted to text, which makes even less sense. FWIW, as of PG 8.3 you'll get an error: regression=# select * from timestamp_tbl where d1 > 2007-10-02; ERROR: operator does not exist: timestamp without time zone > integer LINE 1: select * from timestamp_tbl where d1 > 2007-10-02; ^ HINT: No operator matches the given name and argument type(s). You might need to add explicit type casts. We've seen too many people get burnt by variants of this problem... regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
