"OLD used in query that is not in a rule"

["Gauthier, Dave" <dave.gauthier@xxxxxxxxx>]

I get... "OLD used in query that is not in a rule" when trying to ref, for example, OLD.tblcol1, from inside a stored procedure.  Is this saying you cannot use OLD.* (or NEW.* I suppose) unless it's from within a trigger function (returns type "trigger")?

 

If so, is there some way to tap this info given that the stored procedure is running as part of a check constraint definition? 

 

Thanks for any help.
