You can't do this in PostgreSQL. You should use cron to run a script to do these updates at the appropriate times. -- Oliver Elphick Oliver.Elphick@lfix.co.uk Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver PGP: 1024R/32B8FAA1: 97 EA 1D 47 72 3F 28 47 6B 7E 39 CC 56 E4 C1 47 GPG: 1024D/3E1D0C1C: CA12 09E0 E8D5 8870 5839 932A 614D 4C34 3E1D 0C1C ======================================== "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
