Hello David, 

Here is the actual function. And I called this using select * FROM public.ModifyTopicValue('DEPT', 'SOLD', 'SOLD''')



CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION ModifyTopicValue(
    rtn_rc             OUT INTEGER,
    rtn_row_count      OUT INTEGER,
    p_topic_id          IN VARCHAR,
    p_old_value         IN VARCHAR,
    p_new_value         IN VARCHAR)
RETURNS RECORD AS
$func$
DECLARE
    v_tpc_data_type  INTEGER;
    v_tpc_db_table   VARCHAR;
    v_replace_str    VARCHAR;

    v_sql            VARCHAR;
    v_sqlstate       VARCHAR;
    v_message        VARCHAR;
    v_sql_state_rec  RECORD;
BEGIN
    rtn_row_count := 0;
    v_replace_str := p_new_value;
    v_tpc_db_table = 'topic$_dept';
    
    v_sql :=          ' WITH upd AS ( ';
    v_sql := v_sql || ' UPDATE ' || v_tpc_db_table || ' ';
    v_sql := v_sql || ' SET topic_value = ' || v_replace_str || ' ';
    v_sql := v_sql || ' WHERE topic_value = ''' || p_old_value || ''' ';
    v_sql := v_sql || ' RETURNING 1 ) ';
    v_sql := v_sql || ' SELECT COUNT(*) FROM upd ';

    --PERFORM VDRDebug.DisplayMessage('v_sql: ' || v_sql);
    
    BEGIN
        EXECUTE v_sql INTO rtn_row_count;
    EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
        GET STACKED DIAGNOSTICS v_sqlstate = RETURNED_SQLSTATE, v_message  = MESSAGE_TEXT;
        SELECT * INTO v_sql_state_rec FROM MapSQLStateToErrorCode(v_sqlstate);
        rtn_rc :=  -1 * v_sql_state_rec.rtn_rc;
        PERFORM VDRDebug.DisplayMessage('Unable to update ' || p_topic_id 
                                      || ' old value ' || p_old_value
                                      || ' new value ' || p_new_value
                                      || ' error: ' 
                             || to_char(rtn_rc,'FM9999999999') || ' ' || v_sqlstate  || ' ' || v_message);
        RETURN; 
    END;

    rtn_rc := 0;
    RETURN;
END          
$func$ LANGUAGE plpgsql VOLATILE;

PostgreSQL (one s)...

I doubt this is a bug but rather likely you are not doing something correctly here.  But since you don't show the
functionits impossible to say what.

How hard is it to include the actual error?
