In 7.2 this is acomplished through returning a cursor from the function.
See the 7.3 documentation to see how to do that (AFAIK, this is not
documented in the 7.2 docs, although it does work).
In 7.3 you can return true record sets without the use of cursors. Again,
see the docs for 7.3 in the developers site.
