PG_EXEC()	       PostgreSQL 7.4.19 Documentation		    PG_EXEC()



NAME
       pg_exec - send a command to the server


SYNOPSIS
       pg_exec conn commandString


DESCRIPTION
       pg_exec	submits	 a  command  to	 the  PostgreSQL server and returns a
       result.	Command result handles start with the connection  handle  and
       add a period and a result number.

       Note that lack of a Tcl error is not proof that the command succeeded!
       An error message returned by the server will be processed as a command
       result  with failure status, not by generating a Tcl error in pg_exec.

ARGUMENTS
       conn   The handle of the connection on which to execute the command.

       commandString
	      The SQL command to execute.

RETURN VALUE
       A result handle. A Tcl error will be returned if pgtcl was  unable  to
       obtain  a  server response. Otherwise, a command result object is cre-
       ated and a handle for it is returned. This handle  can  be  passed  to
       pg_result to obtain the results of the command.
