Re: : Postgres order by into a RECORD, not ordering

RESOLVED.

It must be a bug in 7.3
I resolved the problem, by changing the FOR IN statement to FOR IN EXECUTE.
By changing the Statement into a string, it accommodated for the ORDER BY.

Thanks for all your responses.

Kind Regards,
Shaun Clements

Hi Again.

I hope you can explain this.
I have a stored procedure which does a query of a table using order by, into a RECORD.
The statement I mentioned earlier, is a FOR  IN.
the data stored into the RECORD, is not ordered by the columns specified, because when I loop through the record, the columns returned in the row are different, to when I manually do a Select query using order by.

I assumed this may have something to do with the index.

Is there any reason why this is so ?

Kind Regards,
Shaun Clements

Before reaching that conclusion, let's see what you were doing.

Could you post the code that didn't work and the code that does
work?  There might be a better solution than what you did.  In any
case, it's good to understand *why* something doesn't work, so if
you post the code then maybe somebody can explain what's wrong.
