Sean: you are on the same track I am. Yes, I found 9 such values in a timestamp field. I corrected the data, exported, and imported into 7.2. All went well[1]. Now my concern is how the value 'current' found its way into a timestamp field.... I'm looking at the application. thank you. [1] - I did have to manually modify the pg_dump output to remove the quotes from around current_timestamp (as mentioned elsewhere). -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary - http://freebsddiary.org/ - practical examples ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
