Re: TimeStamp Problem -- MIDRANGE-L

At 7.2 the timestamp precision has been increased - you can now go up to 12 digits in the fraction of seconds.

We're not yet on 7.2, so it'd interesting to hear the experience of others in this.

Yes, it is like that by design.
To get timestamp with micro seconds you can use SQL or the C functions.

EXEC SQL set mytimest = current_timstamp;

All right. I'm going to ask one of those "stupid" questions.

Why does the time stamp only use the first 3 positions of the

millisecond?

We just tried to find unique records for a file based on time stamp and
got
several results returned all with the last 3 positions 0. In fact, all

our

files
are like that.

Is this by design? Are we doing something wrong when we write them out?
