Hi Tom,


Alternatively, do you really need to_timestamp at all?  The standard
timestamp input routine won't have any problem with that format:
    t.timestamp_in >= '20070101'

This is always I think I'm worried, what happens if one day the internal format in which the DB stores the date/timestamps changes. I mean, if instead of being stored as YYYYMMDD is stored as DDMMYYYY, should we have to change all the queries? I thought the to_char/to_date/to_timestamp functions were intented for this purposes
