Re: [GENERAL] Localization (for dates) Oracle vs. Postgresql
First of all I want to thank you for your quick response. That would be very nice if it is possible. But using to_char I can only set the format or is it in Postgres Other? When I would execute this: select to_char(now(),'DD.Month,') I would get the monthname in english but how can I perform with to_char That I become the monthname in german?? -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Tom Lane [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 3.

I only need that for the monthnames. I think you can do this if you are willing to use to_char() to format the dates for display. There's no provision for such localization in the basic date or timestamp datatypes, though. regards, tom lane ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend

You can try
select CAST(cast('4' as NUMERIC(20)) AS varchar);

[GENERAL] Problems with GRANTING SELECT to a table
Title: Problems with GRANTING SELECT to a table
Hi,
I have a problem with permissions for SELECT.
Here is what I did:
test=> GRANT SELECT ON "poi"."fondsstamm" TO "flex";
GRANT
test=> \dp fondsstamm;
Access privileges for database "test"
Schema | Table | Access privileges
++---
poi | fondsstamm | {=arwdRxt,poi=arwdRxt,flex=r}
(1 row)
Now when I try to select from the table poi.fondsstamm
I become always the error: Permission denied,
> psql test flex
Welcome to psql 7.3.2, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help on internal slash commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
test=> select * from poi.fondsstamm;
