Is there a Postgres utility that allows data contained in a CSV file to
be loaded into the database?
You mean like psql?
\copy tablename from csvfilename CSV
or with a header:
\copy tablename from csvfilename CSV HEADER
or an alternate delimiter:
\copy tablename from csvfilename CSV delimiter '|'
or export data (tab-delimited):
copy foo to stdout CSV DELIMITER E'\t';
Cheers,
Steve
