For those of us who use PG and not Oracle a description of the functionality you need would help, the artifacts of your current implementation are less helpful. That said: plpgsql can RAISE NOTICE, which looks similar to DBMS_OUTPUT most "untrusted" scripting languages (i.e. plperl or plpython) can touch the filesystem, which is what UTL_FILE seems to be about -- Sam http://samason.me.uk/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
