Hello

I'm closer to a solution. The query results is :

Result:
01   1440
02   1460
03   1398

The values (1440, ...) are the last entries of z_u_umfang for each z_u_typ.
This is correct since in the function the list:= ... is overwritten until
the last record is read.
When I try to concat the list in the manner of list := list ||
text(rec.z_u_umfang); the zustring is empty !

Thanks for any help ... jr

Query :
select distinct z_u_typ, buildString(z_u_typ) as zustring from
zylinder_umfang

Function:
CREATE FUNCTION buildString(bpchar) RETURNS text AS '       DECLARE               list           text;
rec         record;       BEGIN         FOR rec IN SELECT z_u_umfang FROM zylinder_umfang WHERE z_u_typ
 
= $1;            list := text(rec.z_u_umfang);         END LOOP;         RETURN list;       END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
