Thanks for your help.

For other novice users:

    The complete solution is to convert the numeric variable in to text
variable with the text  function.

        EXECUTE ''INSERT INTO temp_tab VALUES(''
                        || quote_literal(nombre) ||'',''
                        || text(numero) ||'')'';
