I need to make a funtion that take one parameter and then returns a "record" with x number of fields,
collected from x no. of tables, i.e. I need to run several sql statemtents to collect all the needed values
from x no. of fields and insert it into a "record" and return the "record" at the end...
Can someone get me started? I have not written many function in plpgsql before, so any help is appreciated...
(how to a create the return "record", etc?)
btw, I am using PostgreSQL 7.4 (will be upgrading to 8.1 after the summer but need a function working for 7.4
first...)
Regards,
BTJ
