Hi,

I'm using the following statement in my plpgsql function

SELECT INTO no_rows COUNT(*) FROM tbl_concurrent;

I have decalred no_rows int4 and initialized it to zero

Running the function throws the following error:

ERROR:  syntax error at or near "(" at character 13
QUERY:  SELECT   $1 (*) FROM tbl_concurrent
CONTEXT: SQL statement in PL/PgSQL function "sp_insert_tbl_concurrent" near line 8


If i comment this count(*) line, the error goes.

I don't know why isn't count(*) working

SELECT COUNT(*) INTO no_rows FROM tbl_concurrent;
