Sorry about that, first time using this list and just assumed I was 
replying to the list and the list would then notify you

SELECT * FROM public.testFunction();

SELECT firstname from FROM public.testFunction();
This has the same result.

How about?:

SELECT firstname::varchar(30) from FROM public.testFunction();

That does work, thanks, but it may cause me some logic problems in the 
rest of the code. I'll try the type suggestion from Tom and see if that 
works and then decide which is my best approach.

Thanks




Then FirstName returns as a Memo field (similar to a Text field).

Any idea what I need to do to get it to return the character(30) type?
