Обсуждение: permission rejected

Dear list,
On trying this:

mfx=# GRANT SELECT ON employee(eid,forename,rights) TO
GROUP accessor;

I got this

ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "("
ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "("
mfx=# select version();
                           version
--------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 7.2.1 on i686-pc-cygwin, compiled by GCC 2.95.3-5

It looks to be right as far as the sql handbook goes and Bruce
Momijan's book, is this a version thing or have I misunderstood?

TIA

Currently, to grant privileges to only few columns, you must create a view
having the desired columns and then grant privileges to that view.

# create view employee_view as select eid, forename, rights from employee;
# grant select on employee_view to group accessor;

Thanks very much,
This limitation is not clear from anything in the docs and a view
doesn't really solve this problem. But its no big problem.
