For example, the PHP MySQLi lib does that by providing functions to check for and retrieve outstanding result sets in the buffer: bool mysqli_more_results ($link) bool mysqli_next_result ($link) It seems like the PHP PG binding does allow (?) retrieval of multiple result sets through pg_get_result(), but only for requests issued asynchronously: http://bg2.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-get-result.php > Out of curiosity, what language are you using? For MySQL I've been mostly using PHP, occasionally Java, Python and C. Vladimir -- Vladimir Dzhuvinov * www.valan.net * PGP key ID AC9A5C6C
