RES: Datetime problem

Hello,

- PostgreSQL 7.3.2 on i386-redhat-linux GCC 3.2.2
- Timezone: Brazil (GMT-3, I think).

I think my problem is with the time zone. Using a SET TIME ZONE GMT, the
result is Ok. But I don't know how to work with time zones correctly.

When I send a date to to_timestamp, pgsql thinks this date is in GMT?

Thanks for all your help.
