Hi, Can anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong: (The first select is to show that the function rubriek exists, and does work). I want to create an index on a computed column: palga=> select rubriek(rapport, lseek, 'naamvrouw',0) from main where rapport = 'T098-20900'; rubriek ----------- Ramrattan (1 row) palga=> create index nm_idx on main (rubriek(rapport, lseek, 'naamvrouw',0)); ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "'naamvrouw'" at character 54 palga=> This is postgresql-7.3.4-3.rhl9. Thanks in advance, Han Holl ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
