Re: Create Datefield from 3 fields

Hi.

I am trying to create a datefield using YEAR, MONTH and DAY fields of type integer.
I tried this query, but it did not give good results:
select to_date(gwsyear::text || gwsmonth::text || gwsday::text, 'YYYY-MM-DD') FROM cshapes

You are missing the dashes in the input string that you specify in the format mask

 to_date(gwsyear::text ||'-'|| gwsmonth::text ||'-'|| gwsday::text, 'YYYY-MM-DD')
