Re: [GENERAL] strange plpgsql error
Dunno, if it was a documented behavior it should fail both on on 8.1 Linux and on 8.4 Windows, but it only fails on 8.4 Windows. I will try to create a clear test.

Yes, I use it as a table alias inside the function.

Re: [GENERAL] strange plpgsql error
Right, I replace the table alias irq to instreq and the function works. I don't know what could have been the problem: is irq a reserved word, or it's because the table alias has the same name then the function name. Thanks for pointing me to the right direction.
