Right, and judging from Simon's reply, we have no disagreement on that. Sorry for the confusion. I still think that the ability to issue one request and get back a series of responses, each of which could be the result of RAISE or a SELECT, would be valuable, and would be the best way to implement this; but of course it would be totally insane to try to burden Simon's proposal with such a requirement. I was hoping that someone had something in the works, close to fruition, which could be set as a prerequisite for Simon's feature -- so that it could be done in the best possible manner. The current alternatives of a separate request for each related bit of information versus a bunch of text lines makes me a bit queasy. Formated text (XML, YAML, etc.) seems worse than either of the above. -Kevin
