Interesting issue --
I have usually solved this by adding a specific field to each table with a
default timestamp of NOW()...
When you:
CREATE TABLE tbl (
blah...
blah
create_dt TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW()
);
each and every record now has a timestamp of exactly when
+1;

I regularly use the inheritance features of postgreSQL -- Probably 25% of my
schemas rely on it for the techiques I use such as: history tables,
recursion tables [parent-child and trees], among others.
What is the potential impact for the ONLY qualifier ??? None I would
expect, as
In theory -- yes. In practicality -- no -- And yes... yopu are corerct --
postgreSQL needs to be installed PHP. YOu will find this to be the case with
ANY dependencies in PHP, including things like jpeg supprt, curl, etc. So
this is NOT a postgreSQL problem, not really anyway.
This is realy
go in the other direction... Convert your table in MS Access to use a
pass-through query to the postgreSQL table. Connect yoour MS Access pass
through table to postgreSQL using OBBC.
Even better: Drop MS Access completely and just use postgreSQL. Access is a
totally inferior technology.
It sort of looks like you are trying to compile a Windows distro of the
source code on a 'Nix box to me...
