I am posting this because I do not have Ingres yet and therefore I cannot try itout myself.
I want to insert a datetime value into a table. The format I have to use is:
"yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss"
where hh24 is the 24 clock , (13:00 = 1:00 pm)
After reading the manual, I assume that the II_DATE_FORMAT varable must
be to set to 'SWEDEN/FINLAND'.
The question is will Ingres accept the following:
insert into test_table (date_col)
values ( "1992-12-31 13:45:59");
Thanx for any info.
ps. isn't it amazing that none of the 4 databases (sybase, oracle, informix and ingress) have the same datetime definitions when creating a table and same format when inserting a value!!!!!!
