However, if you must use these reserved words as column names, you can use the following workaround: Create the table without the column that has the keyword name, then ALTER TABLE to ADD the column with the reserved word.

Without the order by clause you can compile your function. create function najboljihN(n smallint) returning char(10) as jmbag, char(50) as prezime, char(50) as ime, de
