Subject: Problem with dynamic query

Dear Friends,
I am using postgres 7.3.4 running on RH Linux 7.2. While writing dynamic SQL stmts, i have the following problem. Using cursor works fine.

OPEN ref FOR 
 EXECUTE
 \'SELECT  comma(full_name) FROM (SELECT usr.full_name
 FROM  project_members,users usr  
 WHERE  project_members.project_role_id IN\'||\'(\'|| p_res_ids||\')
 AND  usr.usr_id = project_members.usr_id
 ORDER BY  usr.full_name)foo\';

 RETURN ref;

While I try to assign the value into a local variable v_names , it is not working

 EXECUTE
 \'SELECT  comma(full_name) INTO '||v_names||' FROM (SELECT usr.full_name
 FROM  project_members,users usr  
 WHERE  project_members.project_role_id IN\'||\'(\'|| p_res_ids||\')
 AND  usr.usr_id = project_members.usr_id
 ORDER BY  usr.full_name)foo\';

 RETURN v_names;

Why is it so. Cant I use 'INTO [variable_name]' inside a dynamic query. Please shed some light.

Regards
Kumar
