I've been using syntax like select a from tbl where (b,c,d) > (1,2,3) to mean select a from t where b>1 and b>2 and d>3 But I see in the manual at: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/interactive/functions-comparisons.html#AEN12735 that only = and <> operators are supported. Does this section of the manual not properly apply to this query? Is the manual in error, or am I not understanding? TJ
