Thread: How to show timestamp with milliseconds(3 digits) in Select clause in Ver7.1 ?

This is the query and result:

select h323_setup_time from pv_legs_new where h323_setup_time = '2003-01-01
00:43:59.996-05';
     h323_setup_time
---------------------------2003-01-01 00:43:60.00-05

Actually, the real data of second and millisecond is 59.996-05, but it shows
60.00. I failed to load it when I use this result in other query.

This looks like an old bug.  What Postgres version are you using, and
on what platform?
        regards, tom lane

My version is 7.1, and I also have another version 7.2 but this problem does
not happen on version 7.2. Now I want to dump these data out from version
7.1 and upgrade it, and then load these data into version 7.2

Thanks,

Liang
