Thread: where to find info about data types?

Hi Everyone!

I've been "playing" with postgresql 7.1.3 and its awsome.  This is a simple question but where can I find a
list/explanationof the data types.  I'm coming from the Access environment and there are many more data types in
postgresql. I've searched the archives, postgresql.org and google but I haven't been successful. 

Any assistance is appreciated.

What's wrong with the data types chapter (Chapter 3) of the docs? :-)

You can find documentation for several versions
online.  For your specific request, try:

http://www.us.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.1/user/datatype.html

Best of luck,
