Yeah, you can and should use to_char(), example:
test=# select to_char(2.34,'999D99');
to_char
---------
2.34
(1 Zeile)
Zeit: 0,153 ms
test=*# set lc_numeric = 'de_DE.UTF-8';
SET
Zeit: 0,122 ms
test=*# select to_char(2.34,'999D99');
to_char
---------
2,34
(1 Zeile)
It works also for the group separator:
test=*# select to_char(1234567.89,'999G999G999D99');
to_char
-----------------
1.234.567,89
You have to use to_char(), but i think, this is exactly what you are
looking for.
