You don't need to do that if the pg_dump was done using -Fc. You can use pg_restore to dump a table to a file instead of a database. When it does that the file will contain a plain text copy. Something like: pg_restore -a -t really_big_table -f really_big_table_data.sql Where -a is data only > > Thanks!! > Aleksey -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxx -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
