Hi All,

As per Daniel Caune's posting (with no replies) on October 22nd,
(http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-sql/2006-10/msg00195.php), Can I do
this.?

INSERT INTO stock_deleted_tmp (

code,

description,

date_deleted

)

DELETE FROM ONLY stock_tmp

WHERE grp = '0001'

RETURNING code, description, current_timestamp

At the moment I'm getting this error:

ERROR: syntax error at or near "DELETE"

LINE 6: DELETE FROM ONLY stock_tmp

Yes I have upgraded to PG 8.2:

horseland=# DELETE FROM ONLY stock_tmp WHERE grp = '0001' RETURNING code,
description, current_timestamp;

code | description | now
