Thread: REPOST[GENERAL] Quoting for a Select Into - Please Help

Alex,
 Postgres's "select into" does not work like oracle. 
The "select into" for postgresql creates another
table.  Try this;

select aliasvalue || trim(arrayval[i]) into
newtablename from currenttablename where trim(searchfield) like '%' ||trim(searchvalue) || '%';
