Hi
Is there a way to select by date in format which is language independent.
select name, ....., date from table
where date >= '1-1-1999' and date <= '11-1-1999';
I use the Perl DBI und Postgres DBD driver. In the begin of the session
I set the datestyle variable to the current user language (german or us).
I loose this setting when I set the datestyle to 'german'. When I
do a
select name, ....., date from table
where date >= '1.1.1999' and date <= '1.11.1999';
the resultset is from january first to january 11 instead to the first of
november.
Any hints?
Herbie
