that made it, thank you.
For other readers, here is what I finally did :
CREATE TABLE mytable (...)
CREATE FUNCTION (...) RETURNS SETOF mytable AS $$
DECLARE
r mytable%rowtype
BEGIN
...
FOR r IN select * from mytable
LOOP
RETURN next r;
END LOOP;
RETURN;
END

hi Pavel,
thanks for your answer,
I don't understand exactly how "y" should be declared, and how it
should be returned by the function (as a table,
as a "set of record", or maybe as some kind of generic object, I don't
know exactly what's possible with pl/psql.).

Hello
please try:
postgres=# create or replace function foo()
returns void as $$
declare r x;
begin
for r in select * from x
loop
insert into y values(r.*);
end loop;
end;
$$ language plpgsql;
Regards
Pavel
