Hi Ed, You could use ST_MakeEnvelope [1] to make a box on the fly: SELECT * FROM roads WHERE geom && ST_MakeEnvelope(10, 10, 11, 11, 4326); -Mike [1] http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/ST_MakeEnvelope.html _______________________________________________ postgis-users mailing list postgis-users@postgis.refractions.net http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
