8.2 doc does not explain term overlap. It only says:

"This _expression_ yields true when two time periods (defined by their
endpoints) overlap"

In real queries I have column names and parameters instead of data
constants.
The only way it seems to replace OVERLAPS operator with AND, OR, <=
operators.

Is it so ?

Andrus.

  Maybe:
    ('2006-10-16'::DATE BETWEEN '2006-10-30'::date AND '9999-12-31'::date) OR
    ('2006-10-31'::DATE BETWEEN '2006-10-30'::date AND '9999-12-31'::date)
