... or alternatively, use timestamp literals:
select *
from mytable
where delete_timestamp >= timestamp '2005-08-01 08.00.00.00000'
and delete_timestamp <= timestamp '2005-08-01 08.01.00.00000';
this is slightly more readable, independent of NLS settings,
and you don't rely on Oracle for implicit datatype conversion.
kind regards,
Lex.

Yes, we are using them on 9.2.0.5 on AIX. What is the exact problem that you
are having?
select *
from mytable
where delete_timestamp >= to_date('080120050800','mmddyyyyhh24mi')
and delete_timestamp <= to_date('080120050801','mmddyyyyhh24mi');

Is anyone using the TIMESTAMP datatype? We are thinking about using them but
are having a problem with queries using the BETWEEN clause. If you are using
them, how are you querying them for date ranges?
