PgSql8.1beta2 gives me this:
ERROR: EXECUTE of SELECT ... INTO is not implemented yet
CONTEXT: PL/pgSQL function "_rndbroj" line 5 at execute statement
Shall I forget about this once and for all (and use FOR construct), or
there is a chance that will be 'fixed'?

Could you post a simple example of what you're trying to do? The
following works for me in 8.1beta2 (from CVS):
CREATE FUNCTION mycount(text) RETURNS bigint AS $$
DECLARE
query text;
cnt bigint;
BEGIN
query := 'SELECT count(*) FROM ' || quote_ident($1);
EXECUTE query INTO cnt;
RETURN cnt;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
SELECT mycount('pg_class');
mycount
---------
188
(1 row)

Yes, it's my fault. I was testing it on pg7.4. On 8.1beta2 works as you
explained. Though it would be realy nice to be able to do
var := col FROM tempTable WHERE condition
withouth EXECUTE'ing and stuff.
Sorry for the fuss I might have created.
