Hi

My biggest bugbear with Postgresql is the double quoting when writing
functions.  Has anyone suggested a possible syntax such as :-

create or replace function sp_AddContact(varchar)
returns integer from '<filename>' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

No, but in the near future with 8.0 version you can:

create or replace function sp_AddContact(varchar)
returns integer AS $$
DECLARE
   a ALIAS FOR $1;      
BEGIN
        RAISE NOTICE 'look at this string';
        return 0;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
