I'm defining these attributes to be of the procedure-type postquel. I'm then hoping to be able to append postquel queries as instances attributes. A method outlined by Stonebraker and Rowe in the papers The Design of Postgres and The Postgres Data Model. However when I issue the command to create the class : * create OBJECT (name = char16, source = postquel, object = postquel) \g I'm returned the meesage : Query sent to backend is "create OBJECT (name = char16, source = postquel, object = postquel) " WARN:Jun 8 11:43:36:parser: syntax error at or near "postquel" Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong ? Paul.
