No problem, I will send you a patch. However I want to do things right, because for now my patches for pgsql are ugly hacks that I keep for myself, mostly for a matter of shame :-) > > Note though that most of us think the current money type is a kluge > anyway; anything based on int4 storage doesn't have enough significant > digits.

(just redefine input output, reshape the string and pass it to the "super class") Is it possible to redefine only the _in and _out methods of the type inheriting all other methods. How can I creeate a new type using two paramaters (size and precision). Is possible to view the CREATE TYPE command which creates the internal type numeric? If you want to use numeric I guess you cannot use strfmon because it uses float or double and it's not arbitrary precision. Things should be done by hand, like now.
