time range. Since it is not localized (put in any time zone), it defines a
time range going from 00:00:00 hs to 23:59:59. hs of

Hi Adrian,
Hello list, this is my first msg here. I hope this is the correct place for
this subject, I couldn't find any more specific list for this.
This thought had been bugging me for some time now and I thought it was time
to share it with you pg gurus.
Why in god's sake is there not a date with time

Hi Adrian, thanks for your answer.
I see current criteria and all the SQL-standard compliance policy, but
wouldn't it still make sense to be able to store a date reference, along
with a time zone reference?
Wouldn't it be useful, wouldn't it be elegant?

Speaking of timestamps, I think it would be convenient to have a
single-word alias for timestamp with time zone. This is the date
type I use almost exclusively and its name is annoyingly big.

Hi,
i have a stored procedure (a function) in which i must generate a date/time
stamp.
for that i use select * from now(); and store the result into a column
table.
is there a easier way to do that ? i tried to store directly now(); result
but without success.
thx.

Can you show us the full SQL statement?
You could also use CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
Hi Ray,
yes for sure. Here it is:
SELECT count(*) INTO existing_email FROM cust_portal.tmp_newsletterreg;
if (existing_email 0) then
{
result = false;
}
else
{
result = true;
INSERT INTO cust_portal.tmp_newsletterreg VALUES

Hi Alain,
That won't work; you just need
... values ( email, session, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)
So thanks a lot to everybody... so here is the result.
1. the semicolon was missing after the INSERT as wrote Raymond.
2. CURRENT_TIMESTAMP works great
3. i use pl/pgsql as language
thanks again.
