How would I write the statement? I am not sure I understood you correctly. Maybe you mean something like that: test=# CREATE FUNCTION blub(IN int, OUT a int, OUT b int) RETURNS record IMMUTABLE LANGUAGE sql AS $$SELECT $1+1, $1+2$$; CREATE FUNCTION Time: 1.665 ms test=# CREATE INDEX foo__blub ON foo (((blub(data)).a)); CREATE INDEX Time: 86.393 ms Btw, this is the wrong list for this sort of question. The right place would be -general.
