Bill,
Make sure you are on at least version 8.2 (8.3 is preferred) and use a
plpgsql debugger. Later versions of Pgadmin have one built in and a
stand alone version is available from:
http://www.amsoftwaredesign.com/debugger_client_announce (built with
Delphi)
If you are using the win32 version there is a option at the end of the
installer script to install the debugger part. On 8.2 or 8.3 you will
need to install it yourself.
Please see: http://pgfoundry.org/projects/edb-debugger/
Hope that helps.
