RE: datetime fix

This was fixed some time ago (well after the last release).

If the current cvs version still has problems, please let me know. The
datetime & timestamp problem is one I'd like to get rid of once and for all.

Thanks Michael.

A couple of typos in what you sent. The uppercase MM for the minuets
should be lowercase mm.

Unfortenitly this does not work for me. When I select from the database
with psql I see times like this:

11:30:10.74-04 or
11:30:10-04

I do not know where the -04 is coming from or what it means.
What I want to do is select a timestamp field from one table and
use it in a select from another table. The times in the two tables
are exactly the same. But even with the fix the second select fails
to get the record.
