(i) I think you need "language plpgsql" (or whatever) after the DO block.As the docs state plpgsql is the default for a DO block lacking a language specifier.
(ii) That assignment in the DO should probably be:
select max(fctrdt) into startdate from fnmloan;
The original form is perfectly valid plpgsql;The DO block worked just fine. It’s just that everything it did was discarded at the end of it because nothing that permanently affected the parent SQL session happened.David J.
