The SQL data type "money" in postgreSQL was deprecated several versions
ago... however -- it is still available in the system. The definitions is:
CREATE TYPE money
(INPUT=cash_in, OUTPUT=cash_out, DEFAULT='',
INTERNALLENGTH=4, ALIGNMENT=int4, STORAGE=PLAIN);
ALTER TYPE money OWNER TO postgres;
COMMENT ON TYPE money IS 'monetary amounts, $d,ddd.cc';
8.2. Monetary Types
Note
The money type is deprecated. Use numeric or decimal instead, in combination
with the to_char function.
The money type stores a currency amount with a fixed fractional precision;
see Table 8.3, "Monetary Types". Input is accepted in a variety of formats,
including integer and floating-point literals, as well as "typical" currency
formatting, such as '$1,000.00'. Output is generally in the latter form but
depends on the locale.
When you "SELECT money('1000');"
the type cast returns: $1,000.00
HTH...
