Can anybodt give me a few examples on how to use heap_modifytuple() 
efficiently when I do NOT want to modify an attribute through a postgres 
function?

All the examples given in the source seem to use some return of a postgres 
function (like current user etc). I just want to insert strings into a tuple 
cought in a trigger function. I tried to find some useful information 
regarding the "Datum" type, but I failed to understand how to use it here for 
my purposes. 

Any help appreciated - in exchange I volunteer to write proper documentation 
for heap_modifytuple() once I understood how to work it properly.

Regards
Horst
