Hello
PostgreSQL has no table data type. You can use a array of records instead
and then
select fx((select array(select * from tab)));

Hi all,
Trying to clean up some data so I wrote myself a function which will insert
the new stuff okay but the existing data... I'm not sure how to run it
through the function.
To make life a little simpler on myself, the old data is in table webserv2
and the new data will go into table webserv2a.
The function insert_webserv2 takes the old arguments, cleans things up, and
inserts into webserv2a.
All is well there. But I have a table full of stuff in webserv2 that I'd
like moved over.
I'd love to do:
select insert_webserv2( (select * from webserv2) );
but that obviously wont work. Is there a simple way to feed a table through
the function?
-Andy

limit 1)) );
