Or, better, he doesn't have to put a value for it as it is already the default value for this column : insert into clients_alerts (client_id, alert_message, alert_complete, date, staff_id) values('39','This is some alert text','0','2007-05-04 12:42:05','14'); Regards. -- Guillaume. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
