Hi there
I'm trying to use COPY with HEADER option but my header line in file is in
different order than the column order specified in database.
Is the column name order necessary in my file ??
From the docs:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/sql-copy.html
"HEADER
Specifies that the file contains a header line with the names of each
column in the file. On output, the first line contains the column names
from the table, and on input, the first line is ignored. This option is
allowed only when using CSV format."
So when going from file to table the HEADER is ignored, The column order
is important though. This can be specified by using the column parameter.
