varchar error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello, I just have this:
 
CREATE TABLE test (
    mytext varchar(5)
) WITHOUT OIDS;
 
If I put a string with more than 5 chars in mytext, I receive an error, regarding the wrong lenght of the string.
 
In MySQL I know that the string is automatically reduced to the number of char allowed by the column, even if I insert a longer string.
 
I don't want to do this from PHP, and I was wandering how this can be done in PostreSQL? Maybe in CREATE TABLE definition?
 
Cheers, Raul.
