However, it seems that PostgreSQL does not support it. Could Right, because those aren't valid values for those types. I think you have to choose between using a date (or timestamp) column and constraining the values to valid ones (for example, possibly '0001-01-01') or using a type that doesn't constrain the value to valid dates. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
