I would think that psql could duplicate the output pretty closely, especially if the output of the stored procedure was a stream of intermingled result sets and messages (as from ereport). This is what many products provide. They usually show messages with a class '00' SQLSTATE just as plain text lines, and decorate the more severe levels with appropriate additional information. A while back I included a link to show what Sybase returns from their sp_help SP for various object types: http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.infocenter.dc36273.1550/html/sprocs/X85190.htm Note the lines like: Object does not have any indexes. This came from the server as a SQLSTATE '00000' message. -Kevin
