So I'm thinking again about the problems with fixed length data types not having typmod available when they would need it. But I'm having trouble finding enough old posts to get a handle on exactly what the problem is.
This would make a nice test of the new wiki. I would be indebted to whoever could summarize the root of the problem and explain exactly what circumstances the typmod is unavailable. I would summarize the responses and put them up on the wiki. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
