Subject: PostgreSQL ODBC from MS Access numeric/float8 Error Fix
Date: Sun, 26 Nov 2000 02:05:19 -0800 (PST)
Message-ID: <20001126100519.84030.qmail@web9502.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)
I've created shell script which fixes this error:
ERROR: Unable to identify an operator '=' for types
'numeric' and 'float8'
You will have to retype this query using an explicit
cast
The error occurs when you try to insert information
into at PostgreSQL database from MS Access using ODBC.
It is caused by the fact that there is no equals
operator assigned to parameters of types numeric and
float8.
I don't know why Access is running a query with the
types numeric and float8, but it is. I don't not have
either of those types in my table.
Here is the script, which works on Red Hat Linux 7.
