If you want the timestamp on INSERT add DEFAULT now() to column. In a pl/pgsql function I do;
new.ts_update:=now() where ts_update is the column I am updating. Be aware now() records the time at the beginning of the transaction. An alternate is clock_timestamp() which records the current time. -- Adrian Klaver [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
