Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: how to define date column in a table with only mm/dd/yyyy portion
a trigger trunc(ing) :new value would do the trick

Hi All,
I have table that contains a column - TRADE_DATE.
This column should always contain only the date portion - mm/dd/yyyy. It SHOULD NOT contain time portion.
Is there any way, I can define this column or can I use some kind of constraint clauses on this column? If yes, please tell me how to do this.
TIA, Rao
