Note that you can refer to the temp table like this: select * from pg_temp.testtable; Also, you can make the non-temp table first in the search path by putting pg_temp later than the public schema (or wherever you have created the function): select * from testtable; -- refers to temp set search_path to 'public', 'pg_temp'; select * from testtable; -- refers to non-temp -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
