[SQL] Create Datefield from 3 fields
Hi. I am trying to create a datefield using YEAR, MONTH and DAY fields of type integer. I tried this query, but it did not give good results: select to_date(gwsyear::text || gwsmonth::text || gwsday::text, '-MM-DD') FROM cshapes 1966526-01-01 7991903-12-13 1962831-01-01 194611-01-01 196211-01-01 Any ideas on how to do this?
