Hi I have never worked with cursors but for now I have to step back on special events to calculate a difference. So I have this sample code tested but I can not "move" in my cursor. I have lokke at docs but this didn't help me. Can you say how to declare my cursor to step back?
Thank You Chris PS code sample create table fimi.eodbar(fi_id int8, market_id int8); insert into fimi.eodbar values(322,200); create or replace function fimi.test("fiid" int8) returns setof int as $BODY$ DECLARE cur1 REFCURSOR; foo int; BEGIN OPEN cur1 FOR execute('select market_id from fimi.eodbar where fi_id=' || "fiid"); loop fetch cur1 into foo; if not found then exit ; else -- move -1 in cur1; fetch cur1 into foo; return next foo; end if; end loop; close cur1; END; $BODY$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE; ALTER FUNCTION fimi.getfoo(bpchar) OWNER TO fimi; select * from fimi.test(322); -- cu Chris GMX FreeMail: 1 GB Postfach, 5 E-Mail-Adressen, 10 Free SMS.
