Hi all,
I'm working on porting an old MS Access form application from Sybase
to postgres/ODBC as part of a larger database port project.
One of the snags that's popped up is that there's some incompatibility
between data types. Specifically, many fields are the Sybase type
"bit", which is basical

Ah, that works. Excellent.
Thanks,

Hi all,
Is there any sort of pattern matching or partial matching capability
in tsearch2?
I'd like to be able search for a common prefix (like for order
numbers). For instance, tsearch2 will index 'zvt123456' or
'zvt55', but I'd like to be able to find both of them in one query
using somethin

Excellent, just what I was looking for. I'll l
Is there some way to do ascii-betical sort ordering in postgres (i.e.
capital letters come before lowercase)? It appears that text ordering
is dictionary-alphabetical. It's useful, but it's different from the
DBMS I'm porting some applications from (SQL Server, in case you were
curious).
It may no

I kinda figured, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Hi all,
Is there any way to use PL/pgSQL code outside of a function?
The reason I'm asking is that I'm porting some code from
sybase/isql/SQR, and it allows some control code structures to be used
in an sql script. For instance,
begin
if ((select count(*) from users where login = 'foo') = 0)
Anyway, this is in response to a really old request of mine to easily
and automatically get a datestyle for a different DBMS as part of an
ongoing port process
(http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-sql/2008-05/msg00048.php).
I patched this a while ago and I finally got a chance to test it.

That's a possibility, but the issue is that the output formatting is
bound to a data type (timestamp), not one or two particular tables.

Hi all,
I'm undergoing a port from an old Sybase database to Postgres. It's
going surprisingly well, but I have a question regarding formatting of
timestamps.
In Sybase, we get:
:> select date from checkoutdate;
date
'May 1 2001 12:00AM'
...
In Postgres:
=> select date from checkoutdate;
14 matches
