I would like to query for a timestamp using a different timezone. For example if a column contains '2006-02-11 00:30:00-05' select * from table where column='2006-02-10 19:30:00+00' would return the column containing '2006-02-11 00:30:00-05'. From section 8.5.1.3 "To ensure that a literal is treated as timestamp with time zone, give it the correct explicit type: TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE '2004-10-19 10:23:54+02'" So I tried: select * from table where column = TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE '2006-02-10 19:30:00+00' But it did not returned the desired result. I am getting the timestamp as UTC and want to use to build a query, but I don't want Postgres convert the timestamp. Is there anyway to do this?
