This is the question. > ERROR: "v_result" is not a known variable > LINE 3 : select p.result from dbo.func() p into v_result; This error is thrown by the plpgsql parser, so you can't trap it with "exception", any more than you could trap other syntax errors detected by the parser. (As an extreme example, you could certainly not trap it if you misspelled "exception".) regards, tom lane
