It is sort of possible in 7.2, as a function can return a cursor to an interface language capable of handling cursors. However, implementation is quite cumbersome, and I won't try to detail it here, particularly since that language and method have been obsolesced and would force you to re-write your code when you do upgrade. If this feature is important to you, I strongly recommend that you upgrade to 7.3.1 now. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
