Hi guys,
I've been using PostgreSQL for about one year, and implemented two
systems using it, and I'm pretty happy with PG. But coming from MSSQL, I
just can't get used to the annoyance of having to create a type for
every single function that returns a rowset. It is frankly cumbersome.

Yup. See coming attractions at, eg,
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/xfunc-sql.html#XFUNC-OUTP
Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately id didn't address any of my
concerns. I alreay use the version 8, and I'm aware of the possibility
of using arrays for the results, which allows for some flexibility. But
unfortunately arrays are not records, and I'm limited to values of the
same types, and

Wow, incredible. You misread the whole documentation.
I certainly did, I read it with more care this time. It is a great
solution when we're required to return a single record with a custom
type, which are few but there certainly are.
I wonder if you know any tricks t
