If I understand, you want to access the query, e.g. "SELECT * FROM
my_table" from within a trigger function. The answer is no. If you can
describe what you're trying to do, someone may be able to help though.

Ok. Richard, that is that I need to do, I need to create a log table with
all the information that is changed on every row that was update, delete or
insert, additionally I must be record the user that do that. At this point I
don't have troubles I can do that, but I need to get the full sentence
because I want to use that to update other database but only apply the last
changes, in the case of insert of course doesn't exist problem but in the
case of dalete and update yes. That is because I need to catch the sentences
of insert update an delete but full.



Thanks in advanced.

Manuel

Sounds like you want to use one of the existing replication solutions -
perhaps try a search on slony.

PS - merely tracking the top-level SQL isn't enough to guarantee you can
reproduce the changes to the database.
