This will change the constraint to Check constraints: "ck_tp_ratified" CHECK (ratified IS NULL OR (ratified = ANY (ARRAY['Y'::bpchar, 'N'::bpchar]))) Less casting. ( Does the casting from one "String" type to another "String" type have any performance impact, btw? AFAIK, constraint evaluation is based upon the column's underlying data type. But isn't char and varchar all stored in the same data structure? Dirk
