Hi,
I have installed Windows version of Postgres 9.0.4 in my windows machine to test the new copy command as detailed in the below e-mails. When I run the command in SQL Editor, I got permission error. But I am running as an administrator.
COMMAND: copy (select * from employee) to 'C:/emp.csv'
ERROR: could not open file "C:/emp.csv" for writing: Permission denied
********** Error **********
ERROR: could not open file "C:/emp.csv" for writing: Permission denied
SQL state: 42501
COMMAND: \copy (select * from employee) to 'C:/emp.csv'
ERROR: syntax error at or near "\"
LINE 1: \copy (select * from employee) to 'C:/emp.csv'
^
********** Error **********
ERROR: syntax error at or near "\"
SQL state: 42601
Please correct me where I am going wrong. FYI, I am running under the administrator accounts of both Windows Login and PostgreSQL.
Thanks and Regards,
Siva.

Hi,
COPY (SELECT ...) appeared in 8.2.x so you need to upgrade.
Best regards,
