Обсуждение: Auto Insert date/time
What 'serial' does for auto incrementation of intgers, are there something similar in PSQL where the db can autoinsert the correct date/time data each time you add a new row , without have to specify the code e.g. Date() class in a java/C++ file? If well, how do I manage to make this work? Is there maybe an PSQL function which can do it? AN example will be nice :) Big Thanks Smith __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Tax Center - online filing with TurboTax http://taxes.yahoo.com/

I beleive this is in the docs somewhere... HTH, -- Martijn van Oosterhout <kleptog@svana.org> http://svana.org/kleptog/ > Ignorance continues to thrive when intelligent people choose to do > nothing.

Hi, something like "INSERT INTO mytable (row1,row2,rowdate) VALUES ('value1','value2',CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)" does that work for me. The function CURRENT_TIMESTAMP gives exactly, what it´s name says: The actual timestamp at the time of executing the query. mfg Frank.
