I missed what came before in this thread, but in plpgsql functions the
DECLARE comes before BEGIN:

  create or replace function my_function() returns....
  as
  $$
  declare
    ....
  begin
    ....
    return....
  end;
  $$
  language plpgsql;

Can you show us the full function code again please?

Ray.
