Hi,

i have a stored procedure (a function) in which i must generate a date/time stamp. for that i use "select * from now();" and store the result into a column table.

is there a easier way to do that ? i tried to store directly now(); result but without success.

Do you mean something like this:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "public"."test"()
RETURNS timestamp  AS
$BODY$
DECLARE
mydate_var timestamp;

BEGIN
--store the current timestamp  in a variable
mydate_var = now();

RETURN mydate_var;


END;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE;
