Hi! Seeing no comments on the same issue I raised in pgsql-general list, I am posting it here. The documentation (Appendix B.2. Date/Time Key Words) says that the following SQL's are legal, but actually they are not:
SET TIME ZONE TO '<any time zone abbreviation>' (examples: SET TIMEZONE TO 'NZDT'; SET TIMEZONE TO 'EST'; ) However, the following SQL's are accepted by postgres: SET TIME ZONE TO 0 SET TIME ZONE TO 9 SET TIME ZONE TO -4 Regards, CN ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
