But I want to be formatted: 11:00:49 15-10-2012

use the date formatting functions, like...

    select to_char(yourfield, 'HH:MI:SS DD-MM-YYYY') ...

see http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/functions-formatting.html

Yes, I see this function but if I need to select 100 000 rows this mean I think,
this function will be start 100 000 times. I mean when I ask the question,
it's is possible to format the date how I like it without to use functions,
just something like: set datestyle ('postgres with my custom format 00:00:00 dmy', DMY)
something like that. Sry that I did not explain it.


If you cannot use datestyle, then there are no any other possibility. Postgres doesn't support custom datestyles.
