Hi
   
  When I execute the query: 
   
  SELECT *
FROM dblink('dbname=Bas','SELECT id FROM person') AS t(a int)
WHERE t.id > 9000 AND T.ID < 9050;
   
  I receive the error message
   
  ERROR:  function dblink("unknown", "unknown") does not exist
   
  How do I install or setup the function dbLink so that I can use this feature.
   
  Regards
  Richard

Hi, Richard,

In your PostgreSQL installation, there should be a contrib directory,
that contains a file dblink.sql - execute it via psql against your
database, and it installs the function definitions.

On my debian machine, it is under:
/usr/share/postgresql/7.4/contrib/dblink.sql
/usr/share/postgresql/8.1/contrib/dblink.sql

HTH,
Markus
