Hey, Loredana.
Nice to "see" you too ;-)

Thank you for your detailed clarifications.

Hmm...try to add the following clause to your INNER JOIN
AND A.date = B.Date

Like this :

INNER JOIN view_sent_messages B
ON A.theme=B.theme
AND A.receiver=B.receiver
AND A.date = b.Date
AND B.date=ANY (A.dates)

I have not your data here, so I am not sure if it'll work.
Also, Ive never worked with vectors on Postgres. I am assuming ANY() returns
true if B.date is on the vector A.dates, is this correct??

Loredane, Then please let me hear bout the result

Best,
Oliveiros
