The DO statement is not in standard SQL; it is a PostgreSQL extension used to implement procedural languages like PL/SQL. Are you writing PL/SQL code?   If so, it would be useful to have an explanation of what you are trying to compute, particularly if the computations are geometric ones.

Hi, Ruven Brooks,

This is a good point.

I was testing in a Do statement.  I created a geometry variable.  It seems that it stored a geometry object. However, a very long code appeared.  It does not seem that the geometry object was not actually stored.

Regards,

Shao

    SQL itself has no variables.   What programming language are you
    using and how does it call SQL?  PosgGIS supports WKT format so
    pretty much any programming language which can store strings can
    store geometry.

    Has anyone got experience in storing geometries in variables, so
    that these can be used in a program?
