Hello there
I have a db table with two char fields :
log_date char(10)
log_time char(8)
I added a new field log_timestamp of type timestamptz
How do I take the data from log_date and log_time and put it into
log_timestamp ?
update log set log_timestamp = cast (log_date as timestamp) || cast

Hello there
Unfortunately, I can't change the fieldtype that easy because other
applications use the date as char(10) field as well.
I need to sort the query by the log_date desc (log_date is char(10)). I
tried the following without success :
select id, log_date from userlog order by cast (log

Hi all,
Suppose that I have a table like this:

2 | b |y |y2
3 | a |xx |y3
4 | c |zz |y4

Hi Folks -
I'm working on a global weather database for a client and have hit an issue
which I'm sure has been solved before. Unfortunately, the site search doesn't
pull up anything.
Essentially, I've got two tables, one with city/county/lat/long and another
with lat/long/weather data.

Look at contrib/earthdistance, I **think** it does what you need.

Greetings-
I have a table of participants to be contacted for a study. Some are in
the "exposure" group, others in the "control" group. This is designated by
a column, typenr, that contains 1 for exposure, 2 for control.
The complication is this: I need to select 200 total. The 200 number

There isn't an index for the distance operator. You can use boxes to
limit the candidates if there is a small bound on how far apart points

Thanks! That did it.
The inner parens are necessary - without them the ORDER BY seems to be
parsed as part of the second subquery and is therefore a syntax error.

Thanks, yeah this starts to get me into the realm of what I need. It still

If you can use UNION ALL then this would be pretty safe to rely on.

Andrew,
Another approach, one that does not require you to know before constructing
the query how many eligible subjects there are, is not to use a union at all:
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT ... , zip
FROM participants
WHERE (typenr = 1 and ) DESC
LIMIT 200 ) p1
ORDER BY zip;
The inner query gives y

Hello,
I'd like to select from one table ( contains duplicates ) into a new table.
However the new table is exactly the same as the original ( duplicates
included )
I think I have a problem with my DISTINCT clause - sql below.
It seems the DISTINCT is applied to the whole row not just the 'phon

Thank you.
I though if I'm lucky Chris will be online and will see that one.
Kind regards

Hi,
Just quickly, DISTINCT ON - Is that Postgresql only ?
Thanks

TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ?

Don't know. I've seen it elsewhere so it might even be "standard".
