RMySQL still treats timestamp as character?
Hi Alexy, Dates in MySQL (and other databases) may span outside the range of currently supported POSIX implementations (ie., under 32-bits), thus the character representation is known to work regardless of the dates themselves, e.g., before the Unix epoch. Regards, -- David,

Greetings -- downloaded RMySQL 0.6.0, and on a table with timestamps it gets them over as character. Found an email in this group from 2006, about switching to RODBC, did that, got lovely floats... Any progress on that for RMySQL proper? Cheers, Alexy
