On a daily basis I place a lot of data into the empty table dailyList,

using a function would be a good way to do this(?). However I get the

ERROR: set-valued function called in context that cannot accept a set
CONTEXT: PL/pgSQL function "updatecurrentcata" line 6 at return next
I've googled and tried variations on the function, but without success.
Can anyone help?



This probably means that you're calling it like: select updateCurrentData(); and you'll need to instead call it with the function in the FROM clause, something like: select * from updateCurrentData();

aha, that's part of it. I now get this error:
  ERROR:  wrong record type supplied in RETURN NEXT
Any ideas on this one?

TIA
