Probably I didn't make myself clear enough. :) I know this works (see above two examples). I need to connect two tables, one is: CREATE TEMP TABLE haystack (straw text); INSERT INTO haystack SELECT n FROM generate_series(1,100) AS x(n); CREATE TEMP TABLE needles (id int, straws text[]); INSERT INTO needles VALUES (1, '{10,15,aaa}'); SELECT * FROM haystack WHERE straw = ANY (SELECT straws FROM needles WHERE id=1); ERROR: operator does not exist: text = text[] HINT: No operator matches the given name and argument type(s). You might need to add explicit type casts. But you are right, though! I just need to leave off the subselect! Thanks! SELECT h.* FROM haystack h JOIN needles ON straw = ANY (straws); (not exactly what I was looking for, but it works ;)) ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
