Greetings, great thanks to Paul Ramsey, Mr. Ramaswamy, Ulf Mehlig and Peter Mount for their useful advices! Well, now I have the following problem: base exported from VFoxPro (with delimiters '|') contains russian characters and command 'copy' produces the error: // unreadable symbols are russian letters rscexamdb=> copy exam with oids from '/opt2/home3/auricvision/db.txt' using delimiters '|'; WARN:pg_atoi: error in "К трем основным типам инвестиционных продуктов рынка ценных бумаг относятся:": can't parse "К трем основным типам инвестиционных продуктов рынка ценных бумаг относятся:" rscexamdb=> exam is table with fields char(1024), char(100), char(100), char(100), char(100), int, int, int, int, int, int and I can't imagine why the error is in 'pg_atoi' function - it seems to be postgres tryes to convert first string of data file to integer (althrouh first field in the table is char(1024))! What should I do with it? May be I should use copy the file as binary one? P.S.: command '\copy' (\copy exam from db.txt) in psql says 'Broken pipe.' and just quits. -- BEST WISHES, Mitlas Webmaster, Auric Vision Ltd. http://www.auricvision.com/
