Is VALUE intended to be a place-holder showing where you have a literal in the code? If so, what is the point of using MAX? Could you create a sample "stacked" table, insert about 10 rows, and show the SELECT which would give the "unstacked" form? -- Kevin Grittner EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
