All, I have a function that takes the table name the parameter. After some digging I found that this can be made possible by have the query as a string and EXECUTE it. EXECUTE 'SELECT * FROM "' || table || '" WHERE <condition>'; The above works. But I want the result in a record variable for further processing. So my query actually is EXECUTE 'SELECT * FROM "' || table || '" INTO "record_data" WHERE <condition>'; This one will not work with the following error message: ERROR: syntax error at or near "INTO" Can some one help me ?
