Every function has own stack for result. There are not some global stack. Perform just run function and doesn't copy inner result's stack to outer result stack. your A3 function have to be begin return query select * from a1 return; end; like a2 function regards Pavel Stehule > The last one generates error "set-valued function called in context that > cannot accept a set". Why doesn't PERFORM work here?
