Re: ERROR: return and sql tuple descriptions are incompatible

Hi Erik,

TEST1P1 data is coming from the category column, TESTC.TEST_NUMBER.
TRESULT.TEST_RESULT column is giving value data.

As I stated in my first email which has results of '\d bronx.TEST_RESULTS_ALL_MCM_INIt' and '\d bronx.TEST_TEST_DETAILS_ALL_MCM_INIT', columns TESTC.TEST_NUMBER and TRESULT.TEST_RESULT data types are numeric and character(10) . This is as per table definitions.

Are you suggesting me to use the type either TEXT or some other data type in the below clause of the SQL.

Thanks,
Sarwar

The output value columns (TEST1P1 and TEST_RESULT) must be of the same
type. And it must be the same type as the third result column
(TRESULT.TEST_RESULT).
