I get the right thing when I use the right format: regression=# select dt, to_timestamp(dt, 'FMMonth dd, yyyy') from test_date; dt | to_timestamp ----------------+------------------------ March 11, 1997 | 1997-03-11 00:00:00-05 (1 row) However, I'd agree that this shows a lack of robustness in to_timestamp; it's not objecting to data that doesn't match the format. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
