Subject: Trigger Procedure Error: NEW used in query that is not in a rule

Hello.

I'm doing a Trigger Procedure in pl/pgSQL.  It makes some kind of auditing.

I think that it's working alright except for the next line:

EXECUTE 'INSERT INTO ' || quote_ident(somedynamictablename) || ' SELECT
new.*';

PostgreSQL keeps telling me: "ERROR: NEW used in query that is not in a
rule".  I think that this NEW problem is because of the scope of the EXECUTE
statement (outside the scope of the trigger), so it doesn't recognize the
NEW record.

Maybe I could fix it concatenating column names and the 'new' values but I
want to do my trigger as flexible as possible (I have several tables to
audit).

Somebody has any suggestion?

Thanks a lot,

Javier
