Re: calling user defined function with parameters..

What version are you using and what error are you getting?  Your example
works for me on 7.2devel once i made a dpts table with an id_dpt column.

The function code is not checked for plpgsql until its first
use, so if there was a syntax error, it wouldn't be seen until you
tried to use it.
