This worked!!! FOR TableRec IN EXECUTE ExecuteString LOOP
THANKS ALL!!! Ralph
p.s. The reason we're still using 7.4 is that some system logs were trashed and we NEED that data. All but the BLOGS have been recovered, and there lies the problem. =====================================
Hi,
I'm passing a tablename and two columnnames into a function so that I can
SELECT Records in a FOR LOOP using 'fixed' field names.
Using the passed params I construct the create table command and then alter
the names of two columns.
When I 'build' the function and then run my query to use the function w/ a
different offset it works the first time.
The first time ONLY. But actually it doesn't work, it just doesn't error
the first run.
Subsequent runs tell me that relation ######## doesn't exist, at the
FOR...LOOP line, after ALTERing the table.
I build the string and it's good:
CREATE TABLE temp_gentokenstable AS SELECT businessid, publicname FROM
businesscontact ORDER BY businessid OFFSET 200000 LIMIT 10000 ;
I'm forced to use v7.4.
If this is a known error, can I (with the version ; ^) ) get around it?
Ultimately I need to FOR..LOOP through through records and the table and
cols will change. Any suggestions???
use a EXECUTE statement and FOR IN EXECUTE statement
