Dear Andy,

We are using bulk collect to enhance the performance as the data is huge.

But as you said it is ideally insert into b select * from a;

So now I am using the looping through query result option as Adrian suggested.

Thank You Adrian.

That seems pretty over complicated version of:

insert into b select * from a;

Which is all you'll need in PG.  It it does something else, then I failed to understand the stored proc.
