Most people handle this with user-defined functions (UDF) written in PL/PgSQL procedural language. Try to read The Friendly Manual http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-createfunction.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/plpgsql.html Don't worry - all Transact-SQL constructs have their equivalent. Just start rewriting your function and begin asking specific questions here... People will help. I would begin with create or replace function sp_GetUserByID( in_UserId varchar(50), ...) returns varchar(50) language plpgsql as $$ declare ... begin ... return somevariable; end; $$; HTH, Filip -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list (pgsql-sql@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql
