In response to Selecting columns by position?  (Jerry LeVan <jerry.levan@eku.edu>)
List pgsql-general
Well, a simple example, this is the ninth month,

I have some summaries that display monthly totals,
It would be nice if I could simply print columns
1-n if this is the nth month of the year and the total
for the year...
