Not currently. In 9.5 it'll be possible to do UPDATE test_update_m_values SET (gid_plus_1,gid_minus_1) = (select * from rc_test_update_m_values(gid)); but the syntax you were trying will never work, because it would be ambiguous with the case of assigning a composite value to a single composite column. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
