I set that up, and using the SHOW command returns the set value. I searched the archives and I couldn't identify a way to retrieve these values in a trigger function.

Thank you, Tom. Since "select current_setting('uservars.user_name')" and "SHOW uservars.user_name" are both PostgreSQL extensions, why not allow them to be used interchangeably? In short, why isn't the following legal in a PL/pgsql procedure:

NEW.user_name := (SHOW uservars.user_name);
