To be honest I was too and maybe I somehow implied that to you. Anyway, I believe if you are dealing with CSV import then you are correct but apparently SQL is not as forgiving.

David, It may well be different between COPY and INSERT INTO. Anywho, I altered the column and set the default to NULL. That works.
