Bruce,

And I thought that the money data type was deprecated because it was
replaced my numeric.

I suppose the answer to my question is to locate a copy of the money
source code and rummage around it in for more useful goodies. Hmmm-m-m. All
I find when grepping the source tarball I have for 7.2 is PGmoney.java in
the interfaces directory.

Would the money data type code be available?

Many thanks,

Rich
