ISTM that this problem comes about because we allow an external function to be defined incorrectly (ie. the db says it returns type A, the function really returns type B) - and we should be addressing that problem. As I said in an earlier post, it might be good in the future to apply this to function args as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Philip Warner | __---_____ Albatross Consulting Pty.
