The following function failes to compile: CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test_func(p_table_name VARCHAR) RETURNS VOID AS $$ BEGIN INSERT INTO p_table_name(some_field) VALUES('some_value'); END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
Gives: ERROR: syntax error at or near "$1" LINE 1: INSERT INTO $1 (some_field) VALUES('some_value') Any hints on how to use function-parameters as table-names like I'm trying to above? -- Andreas Joseph Krogh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Senior Software Developer / Manager ------------------------+---------------------------------------------+ OfficeNet AS | The most difficult thing in the world is to | Karenslyst Allé 11 | know how to do a thing and to watch | PO.
