Hi!
I am facing two problems in porting from oracle to Postgres SQL.

1> There is a code in Oracle like

  Type Tstate is table of number(9)
    index by binary_integer;
.
........
To define a runtime table, basically it works like a array, How can it
be possible in Postgres SQL,
I have tried create temp table.... But it not works..
Is there any way to use arrays.


2> There is one function in Oracle Executesql '...........' to execute
    and what i got in Postgres is Execute immediate '.........'
    But it is giving error at Execute.

I will be very thankful if any one help me.

Problems in porting from Oracle to Postgres
	This is more appropriate for the pgsql-sql list, so im forwarding it
that way. The hackers list is for other purposes.

	It'd be much easier to help you if you posted the function/procedure
you're trying to port. Just one line is harder.

	Again, you're giving way too little detail. What error? What are you
trying? Without this, it's very hard to help.
