How would I create a dynamic table name, using the loop increment as a parameter? DROP TABLE IF EXISTS tt_PERSONSTODEACTIVATE || v_iteration CASCADE; that doesn't work. don't think i can use a dynamic variable as a table name, so i can't build the table name as a variable. perhaps if the entire DROP TABLE is inside dynamic SQL and I execute entire script. could try that, although it's messy for such a simple problem. i still don't understand still why the TEMP tables are not acting TEMPORARY and are not going away when their loop ends. -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Can-t-drop-temp-table-in-subfunction-during-cursor-loop-being-used-by-active-queries-tp4482806p4484358.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
