Hi,

The following works. (It ain't pretty but it works).

create table t1 (c1 timestamp(0));
insert into t1 values( cast(substring(cast(current_timestamp as
char(32))
from 1 for 19) as timestamp(0)) );

I've never found an easy way of converting between different Timestamp formats. I always end up (as above) casting to CHAR, substring to get the correct data nd then casting back into the new timestamp data type.

Cheers,

Dave
