You can use DO block if your postgres version is >=9.0. DO $$ DECLARE _tablename text BEGIN FOR SELECT INTO _tablename tablename FROM pg_tables WHERE schemaname = 'schemaname' LOOP EXECUTE 'CREATE RULE ... TO $1 ...' USING _tablename; END LOOP; END $$; For <9.0 you can use shell script with psql to do the same. -- Kind regards, Sergey Konoplev PostgreSQL Consultant and DBA Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/grayhemp Phone: USA +1 (415) 867-9984, Russia +7 (901) 903-0499, +7 (988) 888-1979 Skype: gray-hemp Jabber: gray.ru@xxxxxxxxx -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
