I believe there's more than that...  Probably the "+1" should be outside the
date_trunc, anyway.  It might help, but I still see the need to to do
calculations...  Specially if it was Tuesday today...



neo=# select date_trunc('dow', current_date + 1);
ERRO:  unidades de timestamp with time zone "dow" são desconhecidas
neo=# select date_part('dow', current_date + 1);
 date_part 
-----------
         6
(1 row)

neo=# select date_trunc('week', current_date + 1);
       date_trunc       
------------------------
 2007-03-05 00:00:00-03

neo=# select date_trunc('week', current_date);
       date_trunc
