Hi Guys,

i have example function :

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION totalRecords ()
RETURNS integer AS $total$
declare
total integer;
BEGIN
SELECT count(*) into total FROM COMPANY;
RETURN total;
END;
$total$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

and i want to run it from VBA using odbc connection.

What is the best way to use it ?

something like this:

Dim dbCon as new ADODB.Connection
Dim rst as new ADODB.Recordset

Dbcon.connectionstring=”Your connection string goes here!”
Dbcon.open

Rst.open strsql

where strsql is "Select * from totalRecords" or this is not a good
solution?

Best,
Jacek

You need the parentheses after the function name: “select * from
totalrecords();"

Or not?

Depends on the usage pattern. I'm sure there is an ODBC construct for
stored procedures/function, which you could build once and re-use with new
parameter values if you're going to call this repeatedly.

Sorry. I don’t use ODBC directly. If it’s not obvious in the manual,
google ‘ODBC functions’
