If it's not possible, can I create a function that gets a RECORD and a tablename and returns the correct value. For example:
CREATE FUNCTION my_value(TEXT, RECORD) RETURNS TEXT AS ' DECLARE table_name ALIAS FOR $1 rec ALIAS FOR $2 BEGIN IF (table_name = 'my_table1') THEN RETURN rec.my1_field; ELSIF (table_name = 'my_table2') THEN RETURN rec.my2.field; ... END; ' LANGUAGE plpgsql; Em Ter, 2005-05-03 ās 11:52, Tom Lane escreveu: > Ricardo Vaz Mannrich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > Is it possible? > > Not in plpgsql.
