If you are using SQL_ASCII, you should not insert non-7-bit-ascii data. If you do, you are responsible for whatever may happen with character conversion; which means, it will work on some cases, but will fail on a lot of others. You should really declare the correct character set at creation time (which depends on the locale you choose), and issue the correct "SET client_encoding" command at execution time. > (Using other charactersets didn't allow use batchimport when the file > contains special characters Probably that's because you didn't define the correct client_encoding.
