Title: RE: [GENERAL] rows and array

i want do to it in a stored procedure using the pl/pgSQL language.
i can't use "ORDER by" because the traitment is very specific.

for example, in oracle syntaxe i can create my own type :
        type recordChild is TABLE OF XDB_CHILD%ROWTYPE
and next when i declare my variable with this type :
        children recordChild;
i can store rows and re-order them like this :
children(i-j) := children(i-j-1);

Is this different from
   SELECT a,b,c FROM t ORDER BY a ASC, b DESC;

If so, could you specify more details - what language you are using for
example.
