I haven't got enough permissions to install new programs. Big brother... ;-)
I get the error in a plpgsql function
I use PostgreSQL 8.1.4 with EMS SQL Manager 2005 (3.6.0.1).

Hmm, and you can't install psql on the same host you use to run pgadmin?
It's just a client, that connects to PostgreSQL the same way as pgamdin.

Hmm. Strange.
Does it happen in a plpgsql function, or when issuing the select as
PREPARE statement via pgadmin?
Which PostgreSQL version are you running?
