Hi,

I am using Postgresql 8.4, Can you tell me How Can I use Money data type?

I want to store the money and retrieve. Please give me idea to work on that.

I am using Java with Postgresql, I have tried java.math.BigDecimal with
Money, but its giving error. (Its asking me to do the casing)

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Navanethan

 it's best not to,  "money" is a fixed-point fromat based on 32 bit
 integers, abn it's deprecated.

 for that you use a bank, not a database :)
