I think Bruno's got a good point. The implementation would be kind of
painful,
The problem is that the more complex you make things, the easier it is

With triggers it is a bit hard to decide. Since people other than the
table owner can create them, but

I have just noticed that the implementation of
CONVERT(text USING encoding_name)
tries to do database access during the grammar phase, viz it looks
up the encoding_name in pg_conversion and replaces it with an OID.

7.3beta has much more powerful stored procedures. Basically, you can
put function names in the FROM clause of a SELECT. I recommend you try
that and then let us know exactly what is failing with Crystal Reports.
It may be just a syntax issue, or something more major.

I think it's a little late to fix now.
Making psql support multiple versions was a suggestion Tom made a while
back, but nobody took up the challenge.

Tom,
I undestand that you think that it might be a nightmare. The idea
behind this idea is that NetWare doesn't use fork() to create a
process, it uses procle() or procve(). That's very similar to
NT's createProcess() or the combination of fork/exec.
Additional i've implemented a way that is base

Hello together,
