Hi, I'm pulling my hair out. Can anyone help?
I have a table with start and end dates ... type : TimeStamp. (offers
microsecond resolution according to the docs)
I insert datetime information with microsecond resolution
ie
INSERT INTO table (Start_Date, End_Date) VALUES ('2000-01-01
10:01:00.123456' , '2000-01-01 10:01:00.654321')
What I want is to get the difference between these two times - normally
only microseconds.
However, PostgreSQL 6.5 doesn't seem to hold the microsecond portion, or
if it does it does not display it.
I have set the DateStyle to SQL -> this should stop the default ISO
Format from displaying the timezone difference on the end of the
timestamp (ie +00), but it doesn't.
DateTime is no good for me becasue it only offers millisecond precision
(ie 2 decimal places).
Can anyone help? Should I just relax and get used to counting sunsets
instead?
Thanks
Robin
