There is one big difference. PostgreSQL don't know global variables. There
is only local variables in stored procedures or local variables of sql
monitor ~ psql. You cannot directly read psql's variables.

I am sorry. I can't help.

create schema fx;
create table fx.foo(i integer);
select * from foo;
ERROR:  relation "foo" does not exist
\set sp fx
set search_path to :sp
intra=# \set sp 'fx'
intra=# set search_path to :sp;
SET
Time: 9,349 ms
intra=# select * from foo;
 i
---
(0 rows)

look to /home/toto/MDXML/execCreateMDXML.sql sqlscript. Works really well?
