Thank you, Alvaro, but it seems you have slightly misunderstood me. I
want to translate the exceptions I rise myself. That is I do RAISE
EXCEPT 'user "%" not found', prm_user; in pl/pgsql function, but I want
the user to see it translated to the language he uses. Using whole error
message is inconvenient because the application gets 'user "Peter" not
found' or 'user "John" not found' - not 'user "%" not found'. Thats
where the problem is.
