[GENERAL] Get the number of records of a result set

2008-01-30 Thread Eugenio Tacchini
Hello, I'm writing a function in PL/pgSQL and I would like to know if there is a method to get the number of records in a result set, after a select query, without executing the same query using COUNT(*). Thanks. Regards, Eugenio. ---(end of broadcast)--
