I know it wasn't designed to do so. That has been clearly written in the plsql implementation.

But why not?

I believe this is a bug or design oversight from back in the ACS 4.2 days.

The pl/sql functions accept a table_name parameter, but it clearly throws an error if table_name is not null. That does not make sense.

I have a set of changes that allow passing in table name to the function to allow passing in the table name. I can find those and make them available somewhere, if anyone in interested in trying to add that back into OpenACS core.

Hi Dave,
I'm interested in trying to add them. Let me know where they are available, so I'll grab those.
Best wishes,
I
