rowcount function in postgres??? - Mailing list pgsql-sql

Hi,
 
   I am using 8.1.0 postgres and trying to write a plpgsql block.  In that I am inserting a row.  I want to check to see if the row has been inserted or not.
 
  In oracle we can say like this
 
   begin
     insert into table_a values (1);
     if sql%rowcount > 0
     then
       dbms.output.put_line('rows inserted');
     else
       dbms.output.put_line('rows not inserted');
    end if;
end;
 
Is there something equal to sql%rowcount in postgres?   Please help.
 
Regards
skarthi
