Re: < and > for datetime

Thanks. Oops. Now I see that I had one datetime and one date.

I can't do \do on my machine. Many of the psql backslash commands
cause an error. Does anyone know what could cause this error? I am
running version 6.5.3 on an IRIX 6.5.
db=> \do
ERROR: typeidTypeRelid: Invalid type - oid = 0

Thanks,
