This appears to be a usage question. -hackers is about development of Postgres, not use. Please ask in the correct forum.
Also, when you do ask on the correct list, please add more detail to questions like this. In particular, show code that you have tried and that didn't work like you expected. Mailing list readers aren't mind-readers.

I was wondering how to access the schema of a type in PL/PGSQL Basically, we've created some custom objects in the database, which are somewhat similar to database/composite types (i.e. Create type..)- essentially a named list of name/type pairs. In PL/PGSQL you can define variables to be custom database types, but when we try to do it with our custom objects we get: ERROR: "myet is not a table" Essentially we just want some way to create a variable (type instance, or even row) with the appropriate name/type pairs for OUR objects in PL/PGSQL. Where would we start looking to 'hack' the code for this - i.e. how/where in pgsql can i either a) add my object to be recognised as a 'type' or b) make it seem the equivalent to a custom db type Thanks BB ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
