Hello All, My application is a C++ APP. I'm executing \copy command from the CPP and its as follows strPgSqlQuerybuf<<"\\copy hnb_registration FROM '/root/Sujay/hnbfile.txt' USING DELIMITERS ','"; Second \ is to keep the compiler happy. When this command executes on PostGreSql, gives a syntax error as ERROR: syntax error at or near "\" at character 1 STATEMENT: \copy hnb_registration FROM '/root/Sujay/hnbfile.txt' USING DELIMITERS ',' Can some please help! Thanks in advance.
