Hi

I'm knew to postgres and I got my first C postgres connection working from 
the examples in the documentation.

In that it does a BEGIN and a DECLARE CURSOR FOR SELECT et.c. This seems a 
long way to go about getting back data each time.

Is it not possible to just do a straight select and not a transaction and a 
cursor ?

Also does anyone have any generic routines for handling results of all types 
of select.

Many thanks

David
