In the following insert_oicc function I need to replace and embedded
ascii character back into a comma. The following code seems to work.
However, I need to do this same thing on another table that has 70
columns. I am wondering if there is a way to do this globally so I don't
have to type the replace function on every column name in the select.
Any help would be appreciated!
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION insert_oicc()
RETURNS void AS
$BODY$
BEGIN
BEGIN
INSERT INTO store (store_number, store_name, short_name)
SELECT lpad(storenum, 5, '0'), replace(name, '', ','),
replace(short_name, '', ',') FROM oicc_tmp WHERE storenum NOT IN
(SELECT store_number FROM store);
END;
END;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE;
ALTER FUNCTION insert_oicc() OWNER TO postgres;
