Hi Bruno There are a lot of the topics that I feel could have better (or more comprehensive examples). In particular I am thinking of plpgsql. One example is information about working with Exceptions (postgresql specific) and another is the small amount of info about the RAISE Statement.
Refering to my mention of exceptions above, the following is information that I could not find in the standard docs: How to use(Return using RAISE) the actual exception code and message once you have handled the error. This is especially usefull if you have used WHEN OTHERS to catch the error.
