First Question: to_char statement problems

Hi guys. I certainly hope this is the correct place to email this. I'm
having an issue that I have really tried to solve but can't.

I'm using RHEL's postgresql 7.3.4 and everything works great except my
to_char() statements. The most common conversion string I use is
'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM AM' which works except the minutes are never correct,
they always end with ":04". So if I submitted it at 10:23 AM it will
say 10:04 after conversion.

I know Redhat doesn't have the newest version but I can't believe that
they would have such a big problem. Is this just a problem in this
version? Is my syntax incorrect?

Thanks!
