I've found my solution as in the help file under "RETURNING INTO". It would
be nice if this was referenced on the INSERT documentation.

Hello,

I'm having the same issues as dvs had in message thread
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2008-05/msg01117.php as I want
to be able to use the result from an INSERT INTO table(...) VALUES(...)
RETURNING new_row_ID.

I would ideally like to be able to capture the RETURNING value into a
variable to use immediately. Does anyone have a solution?

Dale.
