Re: Bug or Feature?

Hi, Tom,

Thanks for replying.
You were right (of course) I don't need timestamp on this app...
However I tried to change the column type on 7.1.3 to ease the
swith... AFAIK, there's no timestamp without timezone on 7.1.3; Please
tell me there's another way other than editing pg_dump by hand... That
would loose time and would call for errors...
