Description: Problems with to_char(timestamp) and milliseconds
Details:
When you use to_char to show as a string a date (including milliseconds),
there's the possibility that the number of milliseconds will be 1000 (not
between 000-999 as the documentation says)
if you have a table (called "testTable") with a single column of type
"timestamp" (called "testTimestamp") with lots of data, and you run the
query
SELECT to_char(testTimestamp, 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS.MS') FROM testTable
you'll eventually get a result like
2007-10-24 13:44:48.1000
instead of
2007-10-24 13:44:49.000
