Hi,

       As I am fairly new to postgresql I am trying to find some more info
regarding options to dump specific data to files. 





     However, even though I can get the sql query,etc... how will I use this
to dump the data into the relevant files?

 

You can use the "\copy" command in psql to export the result of query into a
file. For example:

 

> psql -c "\\copy <smb://copy>  (select * from atable) to 'myfile.csv' with
delimiter as ',' csv header" adb

 

will copy all rows from "atable" in "adb" to "myfile.csv" in csv format.
