I everybody, I'm new in the Postgresql world, and have an easy question:
Is it possible to have date type data that only contain month and year?,
how can I obtain that from a timestamp (without time zone) column?

I've made this, but I think the result is a text, not a date

select extract (Year from '2001-05-01 20:21:00'::TIMESTAMP WITHOUT TIME
ZONE)||'-'|| extract(Month from '2001-05-01 20:21:00'::TIMESTAMP WITHOUT
TIME ZONE);

date_part will get you what you want as will to_char. The above you could cast if you needed. You really shouldn't use WITHOUT TIME ZONE.
