Yes, I guess that is my point, that we want to make transaction _and_ statement timestamp values available, but most people are going to use current_timestamp, and most people are going to assume it is statement time, not transaction time. Can I add TODO items for this: o Make CURRENT_TIMESTAMP/now() return statement start time o Add TRANSACTION_TIMESTAMP to return transaction start time -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
