Hi,

I just read the docs about DELETE RETURNING in 8.2, and a small idea arised:

INSERT INTO logtable DELETE * FROM lifetable WHERE date<'2006-01-01'
RETURNING *;

Will this work as expected?
What is your expected result here ? It would return all the rows that were deleted ?

Dave

It might be a good example to put into the docs then.

If not, it may be worth the effort to make it work in 8.3.


Thanks,
Markus
