Hi David. Thank you for your reply. I'm developing in a .net environment and for posterity purposes will document the
methodI used thanks to your suggestion. I use a 3rd party component called dotConnect for PostgreSQL (From Devart) for
mydata connection.
string strAppName = "MyApp";
string strCurrentUser = "CurrentUser";
oCommand = mydataconnection.CreateCommand;
oCommand.CommandText = "set application_name = '" + strAppName + "-" + strCurrentUser + "'";
oCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
Looking at the answer now I suppose it would have been more appropriate to post this question in a different forum, but
sinceI spotted what I wanted in pgAdmin it made sense to me to start here.
FYI, I use pgAdmin daily and am grateful for all the hard work you people put into it.
Thanks again,
Chris
