Re: ignoring data type

Thanks Scott

In fact checking the application there are a lots of queries that doesn't make the conversion, in order to temporally skip this issue,I like to try to import those conversions from the 8.1 version to the actual postgres, how can I do that?

Starting in 8.3 many automatic conversions from one type to another
were removed because it wasn't always obvious if this was the right
thing to do.  So, you might need to either change some column types,
or cast them explicitly to the type you want to be used for
comparison.
