Re: SELECTing from a function where i don't want the results - Mailing list pgsql-admin

You could combine the result with a NULL value, as any operations with NULL result in NULL.

SELECT mydelete(r) + NULL FROM sometable;

Vanilla SQL script calls a plpgsql function to delete some number of rows from three tables:

SELECT mydelete(r) FROM sometable;

Where sometable contains maybe 100+ records. This causes the results from the function (integer of number of rows removed) to be displayed in the output, like you'd kinda expect with a SELECT call, except I don't want to see it all, I just want the function quietly executed and rows removed.

Can I accomplish this?
