INSERT into PostGreSQL triggers "RevdbError" but no error

Have an eye on this about irev <=> postgreSQL production state design skills :

> 			put "SELECT module_name,activation FROM" && CustModules && "WHERE module_name = '" & tparam1 & "'" into sqlStatement
> 			put revQueryDatabase(myDatabaseID,sqlStatement) into dbCursorID
> 			if dbCursorID is not a number 
> 			then return the result
> 			else 
> 						
> 				put revDatabaseColumnNamed(dbCursorID,"activation") into nModuleState
> 				if nModuleState is in "NY" then
> 					
> 					if nModuleState is "Y"
> 					then put "N" into nModuleState
> 					else if nModuleState is "N"
> 					then put "Y" into nModuleState
> 					put "UPDATE" && CustModules && "SET activation = '" & nModuleState & "' WHERE module_name = '" & tparam1 & "'" into sqlStatement2
> 					revExecuteSQL myDatabaseID,sqlStatement2
> 					if the result is not a number
> 					then return the result
> 					else
> 						return "MODULE_" & nModuleState & "_OK"
> 					end if
> 					
> 				else
> 					
> 					put "INSERT INTO" && CustModules && "(module_name,activation) VALUES ('" & tparam1 & "','Y')" into sqlStatement2
> 					revExecuteSQL myDatabaseID,sqlStatement2
> 					if the result is not a number
> 					then return the result # "error while submitting the INSERT statement ..."
> 					else return "MODULE_UPDATE_OK"
> 					
> 				end if
> 				
> 			end if

each "then return the result" will expose the original postgreSQL error message

HTH,
