	Well, it seems to work only with "timestamp without time zone" type. But 
worked. Thanks a lot.
	For me it's a new approching not using functions such as time, but 
"casting" it to a "time" type ( like <sql>select materiadata::time from 
materia;</sql>).
	If PostgreSQL development group change it's point of view, I suppose 
there's some advantage. Do you know some advantages ??

bests regards
