I'm having problems passing in variables into my execute statement.  Any ideas?


Table:
CREATE TABLE cat.case
(
vari         character varying(50),                    --Contains Value ‘BDD1’
ht            numeric(4,1)                                      --Contains Value 30.0
)


Statements:
PREPARE insert_plan (character varying, numeric) AS
SELECT vari FROM cat.case WHERE vari = $1 AND ht = $2;

EXECUTE insert_plan(vari_string, case[1]);  --Fails with Errors
vari_string
         = 'BDD1'               --character varying
case[1]                 = 30.0                    --numeric(4,1)[]

Errors:
NOTICE: vari_string: BDD1 NOTICE: ht: 30.0
ERROR: function insert_plan(character varying, numeric) does not exist
LINE 1: SELECT insert_plan( $1 , $2 [ $3 ])
HINT: No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts.
QUERY: SELECT insert_plan( $1 , $2 [ $3 ])


Hard Coded – It will work! It just doesn’t like using variables inside???
EXECUTE insert_plan('BDD1', 30.0);

 

Another Variation of the Execution Statement and still failed.
EXECUTE insert_plan(vari_string:: character varying(50), case[1]:: numeric(4,1));
