I have a related problem and tried the PERFORM...EXECUTE pattern suggested but no matter where I put PERFORM I get 'function not found' errors.
I want to loop through id values returned by a query and execute another with each i as a parameter. Each subquery will return 6-8 rows. This is a simplified example, in the real app the subquery is doing some aggregation work. Tried many many things including this pattern below and read everything I could find, but no go. Any help appreciated. ++++++++++++++++ create or replace function getRowsA() returns setof record as $$ declare r record; loopy record; i integer; sql text; begin for r in select * from cities loop i := r.id; sql := 'select city,topic,weight from v_doctopic where city = ' || i; EXECUTE sql; return next loopy; end loop; return; end; $$ language 'plpgsql'; select * from getRowsA() AS foo(city int, topic int, weight numeric) ----- karlg -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/returning-values-from-dynamic-SQL-to-a-variable-tp5723322p5740324.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - sql mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list (pgsql-sql@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql
