No, pg_dump can dump full tables only. You can use psql: psql -h <host1> ... -c 'copy (select ... from <tablename> where ...) to stdout' | psql -h <host2> ... -c 'copy <tablename> from stdin' (where '...' are other psql's options like user, db, ...) -- Ondrej Ivanic (ondrej.ivanic@xxxxxxxxx) -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
