supportcoding schema name using string variable so I can pass it with parameter? I'm give u an example:

usingD200401 schema, they sometime want to access another schema, so in my thought I can use variable like this:

SET search_path to D200401 ;
SET search_path to D200402 ; 
... 
should do the job.
