It is meant to be being executed in a pl/pgsql function as part of a loop - the rep.id is then used to return the corresponding rows. This function is working on the dev machine. The query I have appended is produced in the function as below. When I throw the query as above at the psql command line, it works on the dev machine. (but not on the production box). The final part of the function looks like :

{{{
RAISE NOTICE 'The final query is : %', querystring;

FOR repid, dist IN EXECUTE querystring LOOP
RETURN QUERY SELECT reportid, surname, city, state, postcode, telephone, species, breed, status, dist FROM data_view WHERE reportid = repid;
END LOOP;
RETURN;
}}}

I have quote_literal(speciesid) etc, even thought it is an int parameter to the query. I realise it isn't needed, but it was working on one. FWIW, I have tried it without all of the quotes (manually removed), but it doesn't make any difference to the result.

cheers
