Thank you so much for these examples, I tryed the 4th one for it's easiness and it works perfectly ! I'm probably going to replace it with your no.2 example as soon as I have time as I do agree with you about data and application logic.

Thanks again,
Guillaume

Hi,
there is option no. 4 (kind of extended WITH)

WITH 
inserted_row AS (
INSERT INTO "tblParent" ("RowValue")
VALUES ('2012-01-01'::date)
RETURNING *
), 
updated_row AS (UPDATE "tblChild"
SET "ParentRowId" = (SELECT "RowId" FROM inserted_row)
WHERE "RowId" = 123 --whatever You need
)

SELECT "RowId" FROM inserted_row;

I missed it in previous post.
This could be part of function (SELECT statement should be modified) or ad-hoc query.

Regards,
Bartek
