Re: From CROSSTAB: One Column data with Two results columns

Hello Andreas,
Using a function, I am generating CROSSTAB SQL and the number of columns will vary for each execution. With that, it is extremely difficult to use view on this task.
Thanks,
Sarwar

Something like "CREATE VIEW"? The documentation has some useful
examples: https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.postgresql.org%2Fdocs%2Fcurrent%2Fsql-createview.html&data=05%7C02%7C%7C68ff07469622406ac6be08dc5d2af2f1%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638487686248203307%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=1NwPwfkyT9BBtzDrtrkVNOHbTFo5rcayKuaZm51pqq0%3D&reserved=0<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-createview.html>

"CREATE PROCEDURE" and "CREATE FUNCTION" are rarely covered by
tutorials, so I mention them. They can be used in a similar manner.

For CSV, I'm the wrong person. I'd code it in C/C++.
